2. Tailored Meal Planning Services
Most working people find it difficult to make healthy meals at home but always wish someone nearby would cook for them. Learn your state laws about catering or meal service and offer customized meal planning services to a specific target group. It could be toddler meals, school kids, or those focusing on weight loss. Your responsibilities would include weekly meal plans, grocery lists, and heating instructions.
3. Home Organization Expert
Decluttering and organizing are two other chores that people can’t find time for. As a home organizer, you can offer clients multiple services – minimize their living space clutter, pantry organization, storage organization, or basement organization builts. Since the results are immediate, you can build a good portfolio easily and find clients through word-of-mouth.
4. Childproofing Services
Many to-be parents feel scared and unprepared to welcome their baby and feel they need more support. You were in their position not too long ago, so I am sure you can relate. Childproofing is one of their main concerns. Your responsibilities will include assessing potential hazards to babies and young children, placing orders for safety equipment, and implementing these solutions. Talk to your kids’ friends’ moms and spread the word in the local community. Facebook groups will also help you reach out to more expectant parents.
5. Freelance Graphic Design
From simple birthday invitations to creating logos and branding guides for local businesses, you can do so many things if you have graphic design skills. If you don’t have a creative streak, you can learn Canva and offer basic services to solopreneurs. It is less time consuming than more side hustles and you have the flexibility to choose your projects and work hours.
6. Virtual Event Planning
We all saw the world shift to virtual meetings during the pandemic and it is still very in use today. The Internet has connected us across boundaries and with people thousands of miles away. Online birthday celebrations, baby showers, and course webinars, are all great opportunities. Your responsibility would be arranging and ensuring the events run smoothly. Since you take projects on a contract basis, you aren’t on a schedule and can easily move things around.
7. Child daycare
Running a daycare is one of the more demanding but highly rewarding side hustles. Let me break it down for you – first, research your state’s licensing requirements, as most areas require a license to operate a daycare. Next, childproof your home to ensure a safe environment and decide on the age range and number of children you can manage. Develop a daily schedule that includes educational activities, playtime, and rest. Purchase necessary supplies and equipment, such as toys, educational materials, and safety items. Since you are dealing with kids, consider getting business insurance.
