12. At Home Day Care

An ideal venture for parents who are staying at home to look after their own young children could be to start a home child care service (not that you would have to be a stay-at-home parent to do it, of course).

Parents who work long hours are often happy to send their children into the care of others – especially if the person doing home day care is a personal friend – and it pays good money, so it’s a win-win situation for everyone. Look at websites like Sittercity to help you get your first few customers. From there, word of mouth will be enough to exponentially expand your business.
