Im a new, first- time mommy looking to change careers. Ive been in the restaurant/bar industry for the last 12 years and dont want to bartend late nights anymore. I have a lot of customer service experience, management, accounting, and marketing. I really would prefer to work from home so I can take care of my 4 month old, but I dont know where to begin looking!

Are you based in the US? If so it might be worth checking this out - https://themomproject.com

I came across this when reviewing startups and it seems to have decent traction in US. It claims to help moms look for flexible work options. I’ve not tried it myself so can’t say if this is true.

Look into getting a project management certificate and translate it to the corporate world somewhere you’d like to climb the ladder.

Also, even if you WFH, you’ll have to get childcare. There’s no way to work full time and take care of kids, esp as they grow, at the same time. Unless you want them to watch you stare at a screen and be in calls while they destroy the house. wFH though will give you more time as you’ll have no commute, and can take breaks to visit baby if you have in-home help.

I truly wish you the best of luck!

What's the best no-code or low-code platform for me to build out my startup idea? It would be a website/app that allows users to upload pictures of items and post a one-time review, and allows others to like/dislike the item. They would be rewarded for each item they review. It's not a Shopify since there's no items sold, just verified reviews.
