10 AWESOME BENEFITS OF WORKING FROM HOME

Of all the unpredicted twists and turns my life has taken, being a work at home mom is perhaps the most surprising.  Not that I didn’t always dream of having a stay at home mom job – because I did.

So it wasn’t that it happened that was shocking. The unpredictable thing, I think, is just HOW AWESOME it is to work AND still get to be a stay at home mom. The benefits of working from home for moms turned out to be beyond my wildest dreams.

VALID REASONS TO WORK FROM HOME

THE MOST OBVIOUS BENEFIT OF WORKING FROM FOR MOMS IS THE TIME YOU GET TO SPEND WITH YOUR KIDS

It goes way beyond “time with my kids”. The thought of leaving my kids at daycare or anything remotely like it literally makes me sick to my stomach – I want to be the sole central influence on them in these formative years.

I do a lot of my work when the kids are napping, and late at night. Or when my husband is home. We save literally thousands of dollars per month in childcare costs. I think that as childcare costs continue to rise we will see a massive influx of parents working from home.

THE DIRECTLY RELATED BENEFIT, OF COURSE, IS THE PILE OF MONEY YOU SAVE ON CHILDCARE

We save a ton of wear and tear on our vehicle (and gas) now that I’m not driving half an hour each way to work anymore. I also don’t buy lunch as often or spend much at all on dress pants. The financial benefits of being a work from home mom are massive.

IT ALSO SAVES MONEY ON THE COMMUTE (AND OTHER “WORK-RELATED” COSTS)

I wouldn’t have believed this in a million years, so if you feel like I’m obviously mistaken, I can understand where you’re coming from.

IT GIVES YOU THE OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE MORE MONEY THAN YOU DID BEFORE
