Awesome Career Ideas For Military Moms

Awesome Career Ideas For Military Moms-Chispa MagazineWe all want and deserve to have an amazing career, but when your husband is in the military, it can be a struggle to find a job. Military families move around up to ten times more than regular households. Meaning that military moms, sadly, aren’t the most desirable job candidates.

However, just because you struggle to get a regular job, that doesn’t mean that you can’t have a career. As a military mom, if you want a role that will be flexible to your unique needs, you need to think outside of the box. To help you find the perfect role, for your military lifestyle, here are a few ideas to consider:

Run a Direct Selling Business
Have you always liked the idea of running your own business? Well then, why not consider joining a direct selling company and becoming a small business owner? Like any business, you will need to pay a small amount to get everything that you need to set your company up. However, once you are up and running, you will soon make that back.

If you have a passion for people and love the idea of working as part of a close-knit team, this is the ideal role for you. It might take some time to build your business up, but once you have, you’ll have a job for life.

Become a Nanny
Do you love children? Yes, then why not become a nanny? You will find that many other military moms will require childcare, so this is a great career path to go down.

Wherever you move to, there will always be families who need childcare. Whether you live in military apartments, or in a normal neighborhood, you should be able to find work. If you want to be a professional nanny, you will need to get some qualifications. Thanks to the power of the internet, you can get all of these while studying from the comfort of your home.

Make and Sell Your Own Products Online
Whether you are a skilled crochet maker or are amazing at making homemade candles, if you have a craft, you could make and sell products online. Websites like Etsy are great for selling homemade crafts, so if you are considering this type of career, make sure to have a look. Just make sure that if you are selling any beauty or edible products, that you get the certifications that you need, before selling. Otherwise, you could be hit with a huge fine.

Run Your Own Blog
Do you have a natural flair for writing? If you do, why not launch your own blog? Believe it or not, you can make a good income from blogging, it might take some time to build it, but once you have, you can earn a great income.

Think about the types of things that interest you, and consider launching a blog relating to it. All over the internet there are various blogs, from mommy blogs to cooking blogs. So no matter what you are passionate about, you could easily create a blog that relates to just about any topic.

You might not be able to get a nine until five job, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a career that you love and a little enterprise at home.
