Home is where the job is for many Maricopa moms

Today more than ever, moms face the tough decision about staying at home with their kids, or pursuing their dreams in a career … but what if you could do both?

The term is WAHM, a now common acronym — Work-at-Home Mom.

While there might not be a firm statistic on how many businesses are run by stay-at-home moms, the percentage of moms launching at-home businesses is increasing because of public acceptance and moms’ passion for entrepreneurship.

But how do they do it? That is the million-dollar question.

When moms work from home, they don’t have the luxury of clocking out at the end of the day and leaving work until the following morning.

Instead, work-at-home moms work where they live, live where they work and it seems to take a lot more creative balancing to get it all done — without losing sanity along the way.

While it may seem like many WAHM’s have it together 90 percent of the time, others are always looking for helpful tips along the way. Here are what some WAHM’s have to say about making it work.
