Hi there, I saw your post about making money from home and thought I'd share some of my ideas. Other than babysitting, I have made a good amount of money selling on eBay. Sometimes eBay will have days where you can list items for free. Also, I've heard Scentsy is a great way to make money. Scentsy is a business that sells flameless candles. They are very safe for homes with kids and pets.
I don't know your living situation, but dogsitting and dog walking are other good ways to get some extra cash. Almost everyone in my apartment complex has a dog and are looking for good sitters. That's its own business right there!
Hope this helps and good luck to you.
