There are many at-home businesses, but there are unique ones that may set you apart from the run-of-the-mill at-home business.
1. Head Lice Removal
The itchy tiny, wingless, parasitic insects that feed on human blood aren’t something we ever want to talk about or have to deal with. Lice are easily spread, especially by schoolchildren through close personal contact and by sharing belongings. Lice are prevalent in many places where close contact occurs. That makes being a headlice remover an important job. The first call to action is to remove the lice from the adults and children. That is where a head lice remover steps in. As a professional louse and nit remover, you will use different types of liquids (typically organic), heat, and combs to help the client get rid of lice. You can start this at-home business and go into people’s homes or have them come to you. Treatments usually take about 90 minutes a person. You can also be the go-to lice removal person and have all the products on hand in case a client wants to do it themselves.
2. Dog Poop Removal
Everything else is becoming outsourced these days, and so is dog poop removal. People will pay to have you come to their home and clean their yard once a week or as often as they request. You can be at home for this business and travel to locations. This is a great business that you could schedule around your family.
3. Rent-A-Goat
Have some goats? People need goats for everything these days, and they are willing to pay to rent them. You can send them out to help someone clean up their out-of-control weeds or brush around a wooded area. You can send them to be a buddy to another animal for a period of time. You can also send them for birthday parties or adopt-a-goat for the day. This business requires you to own goats, but you can be a part of delivering, managing, and bringing them home. You could offer different services at different pricing. Contracting companies have enjoyed using goats at new home sites to help take care of toxic plants and out-of-control wooded area. Goats make quick work of these types of issues.
4. Glamping
Glamping is all the rage, especially in someone’s home or backyard. If you purchase some pretty tents, some interior finishes, and present your business as an experience, you will have no trouble with this business. Many times this business includes setting up a tent experience inside or outside someones home. Many times this is for a child’s birthday party or adult female party. You can set certain hours, rental prices, and different experiences for this business. This business will be on the weekends typically, so you could manage the details during the week.
5. Diaper Washer
Those reusable diapers are organic and friendly to our environment. But they are not always easy to clean, and most moms do not have the time for it. Why not give new families the ability to use reusable diapers without having to clean them. Of course, they would remove all waste and rinse them first. You would schedule a time to pick up the diapers and include a bag for them to put them in. Then you would wash them and return them in a set amount of time. This business is great because you could make your hours as needed.
6. Stay at home mom assistant
Why wouldn’t a mom need an assistant? It’s the perfect job. You could come into someone’s home on certain days of the week and help a mom (or dad) with daily tasks. You could be the go-to person from laundry to cleaning to organizing or even helping with children. Often, a mom or dad (especially a new parent) needs help, but they don’t necessarily need a nanny or a maid daily.
