There are a ton of ways you can make money online, and I’m sharing 30 stay-at-home mom jobs online (*woot *woot* for not even having to leave the house!). All of these side hustle ideas you can start today to help you collect a paycheck!
30+ of the best stay at home mom jobs online (and all can be done at home)
1. Write a book, guide, or create a template
We’re all an expert at something…. why not write a book or guide about that topic and make some extra cash? With the Amazon Kindle store, anyone can publish an eBook and make money.
This month I released my Influencer With Income Toolkit a vault of resources to help aspiring & current influencers work with brands! Every day I’ve made a sale!
Your books don’t have to be 500 pages sharing how to solve world hunger either! They can be as simple as how to flirt, how to drive a car or your favorite 10 recipes.
2. Affiliate income
I love affiliate marketing. Seriously.
Affiliate marketing is basically when you earn a commission for marketing another person’s or company’s product. This month I’ve had an increase in affiliate income simply by linking my outfits in a blog post and sharing my ebates link on my YouTube videos!
The great thing about affiliate programs is that you don’t need a large following to start. My top 4 favorite affiliate programs for influencers: Amazon associates, Magiclinks, Reward Style, and Shareasale,
The majority of affiliate programs are free to join and if you already love the product and rave about it, why not earn a commission from it?
3. Host a virtual event
Yup, that’s right! Host an event that doesn’t even require you or attendees to leave the house! I’ve paid to attend virtual conferences and workshops and it’s a great way you can make money online.
If you’re an expert at something, why not host a virtual conference teaching that expertise? For example, you can host a “branding for bloggers” virtual workshop!
4. Design your own swimsuits, shoes, shirts and more!
Are you great at designing clothes? You can easily design shirts, swimsuits, shoes and more by using print on demand websites such as Printify (my favorite!!!) and Printiful.
What’s print on demand? It’s a process where you work with a supplier to customize white-label products (like shirts or tote bags) with your own designs and sell them on a per-order basis under your own brand.
This means you don’t pay for the product until after you’ve actually sold it! This is great because it prevents you from having to buy in bulk or hold any inventory yourself. Plus it’s usually free to use!
5. Trade Stocks
Did you know many millionaires started with day trading as a side hustle? Stock trading has unlimited earning potential and can be very lucrative! When starting off I believe a key to successfully trade stocks is to get access to a free broker account (if you have a tiny amount of money to invest).
I like Robinhood because it’s completely free to use and has ZERO COMMISSIONS. It also does not have a minimum account balance – which trust me is awesome!
Use my link to sign up for Robinhood and get a free stock (I’ll get a free stock too!).
6. Create a course
Did you know online courses are a billion-dollar industry? Yup, you heard right! Just like writing a book, you can create a course on practically anything!
Create a blogging course, cooking course, and yes, even a how-to flirt better course.
I have a free training sharing how to create a profitable online course which you can learn more about here.

7. Sell your stock photos
If you’re a blogger, Youtuber or influencer who takes your own photos and records your own videos, why not sell extra footage and photos?
People are always looking for stock photos and videos they can use. You can sell on websites such as iStockPhoto, Dreamstime, Shutterstock, 123RF, or Getty Images.
8. Write blog post (for others)
Love writing blog post? Why not write for others! You can make $100+ writing articles and blog posts for other businesses!
I recommend signing up for upwork and looking for available writing work to make money online.
9. Edit videos (for others)
Are you great at editing videos? Just like writing blog post, you can also edit videos for others! Again, I recommend joining upwork to look for available work!
10. Sponsorships
Yall know sponsorships are my jam.
I feel like this one is pretty obvious for bloggers, YouTubers, and influencers, but sponsorships can be pretty substantial. You can get paid to post and promote products/services.
Use influencer marketing platforms and don’t be afraid to pitch to companies. If you’re a new influencer then I recommend starting off local. Reach out to local businesses and restaurants for brand deals.
If you would like to learn more about sponsorships, I highly recommend my monetize your influence.
It includes a ton of resources, templates, guides, videos and even scripts you can use to pitch to brands!
11. Speaking engagements
I know what you’re thinking…. Breonna, I thought you said these are gigs we can do from home and make money online from?
Guess what? You can also do speaking engagements at home too! Last year I got paid to speak at virtual conferences and teach different webinars for companies. You can too!
12. Coaching & consulting
This is how I earned a bulk of my money last year for Breonna Queen. I work with entrepreneurs and influences who want to monetize their expertise online.
If you can solve a person’s problem, why not provide them 1-on-1 services such as coaching or consulting? One way you make money online consulting is meeting with your clients via Zoom, google hangouts or Skype.
Oh and #shamelesspromotion here…. if you would like 1-on-1 help monetizing your expertise online then you can totally book a session with me. I have over 10 years in the game as a marketing expert and have worked with countless companies and individuals to elevate their brand!
13. Run ads for others
Are you great at running ads? There are always companies looking to run ads on Facebook, Instagram, Google, Youtube and even Pinterest!
Leverage that expertise and run ads for others! This can be a very lucrative side hustle and I know individuals who quit their full-time jobs just to run their own ad-agency!
If you’re not that great at running ads but would like to get paid to run ads for others, I recommend taking a course Skillshare. They have tons of courses on running ads on different platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Youtube, Google & more!

17. Create a dropshipping store
What is dropshipping? It’s basically a business model where you sell a product to a customer, but the supplier stores, packages, and ships the product to your customers on your behalf. You don’t have to think about storing inventory or shipping the item yourself.
Sell items on Amazon and use the dropshipping method where you don’t have to physically ship out anything yourself. You can also use sites like Oberlo which gives you access to millions of products that you can add to your dropshipping store.
18. Get Paid for searching the web
Pssstttttttttt…. there are search engines that will actually pay you to search the web?
For example, Swagbucks in known for surveys, polls, and videos, but did you know that Swagbucks will also pay you to search as well? Search by setting Swagbucks as your default browser, or search directly from their website. Swagbucks will award you based on certain keywords and if you happen to search the right keyword, you’ll get rewarded with swagbucks!
