to ask what you do if you are self employed/work at home

[PocketFluff]

In a few threads recently people have talked about being self employed, some only doing a few hours a week, or being able to have a work at home job that fits around the children.

Can I be nosey and ask what it is you do and get a bit of the action myself?

temp/emergency nanny/night nanny

Music Tutor and in between that, Data Entry

I've got several jobs, I work 4 days in an office working for safeguarding children board, then I work for myself as an holistic therapist, I also work in direct sales (Juice Plus and Tropic Skincare) so can get out and about in the community too with party plan etc....makes for a varied and exciting lifestyle at times :)

I am a mentor with Usborne books, started when the kids were at school, they're in their 20's now lol!

Cleaning and property inventories for landlords

I run my own fishmongers on the beach, I take the 7mo with me and let him sit, sleep, play in his sivercross while I work, anyone who doesn't like it can buy their cod in waitrose!

Bit of lecturing, bit of translating, bit of teaching. Also a small landlord. Work in music shop on casual basis.

Occupational health advisor. I phone people who are off work sick or struggling at work and make plans for them to return or review them until they are well enough to return.

Model. Although less and less as the wrinkles appear and appear

I'm just starting to do online moderation for an organisation that do online qualifications. I also do NVQ assessing for another organisation, mostly from home.

I don't work but my OH is self employed. He owns a roofing business.

Copywriting when the work comes my way. I also work for www.redurchin.co.uk a baby and kids clothing company. They are looking for more people who want to earn commission/free clothing by holding parties.

I own a Birds of Prey Display team. I visit fairs and fetes, youth groups, basically anywhere that wants something different. I also take my team to parties, it makes a nice change from soft play for the kids and adults.
