Best Work From Home Jobs For New Dads & Parents

Work from home dad with his baby in front of laptop

The life of a stay-at-home parent can be challenging and can leave you wanting to have your own life outside of your domestic responsibilities. Many businesses provide flexible work schedules and the option of working from home offices.

As a work from home dad, it can be challenging to find something that allows you the freedom to work, look after your child and still earn a good living. But more than ever there are plenty of opportunities for new dads to find jibs.

This article includes seven work-from-home occupations which are ideal jobs for dads and new parents. 

1. Proofreader

A career as a proofreader might be perfect for you if you consider yourself a “grammar nazi”. When revising a work, proofreaders pay close attention to punctuation, vocabulary, and grammar; this demands immense focus and an active eye for errors the average person might think are pedantic.

You don’t have to leave your house or your kids to work since the hours are flexible. Print and online media companies typically employ proofreaders to verify and polish their text before it is published.

You may sign up for platforms that provide freelancing services, such as Upwork, Fiverr, or Linkedin; try to network, or make cold calls and send emails to regional and national magazines.

2. Online tutor

The globe has no dearth of both information and pupils, making online teaching a viable career. If you’ve excelled at school or college or are skilled at a craft, you might join online teaching forums like Outschool, Udemy, and Coursera, among others, or you could make your own website and offer your services.

The only requirements are the necessary credentials and the capability to demonstrate your work. You’ll have an upper hand if you have previous teaching experience however. 

3. Blogging and content writing

Flexible and interesting, blogging is a good career option for new parents looking to earn some quick cash. You may either establish your own website and write on a variety of themes and monetise said website after you’ve gained enough traffic. Or you could opt to write for a blogging service, known as content writing.

Being a blogger means choosing a specific niche, maybe health and fitness or travel blogging – and creating quality content on that subject.

Blogging allows you to share your thoughts and experiences with the world. As a blogger, you may earn money in several ways, such as through sponsored content or getting paid to place advertisements. Although success takes time to materialise, it is satisfying when it does; thus blogging requires tenacity and patience.

Make sure to invest in quality equipment for blogging.

Tips for success: Choose a very specific niche for your personal blogging, and create very in-depth content on the subject. You can then monetize your content with affiliate links!

4. Social Media Manager

With so many businesses and organisations using different social media platforms, someone overseeing their online presence has become essential. A social media manager works to grow the fan base of the business they work for by managing interactions and producing engaging content. Companies commonly employ someone with a background in marketing, a degree in communications, or someone with expertise in analytics and SEO. It’s the ideal job for tech-savvy stay-at-home parents since it allows you to look after your child while simultaneously making a comfortable income.

Finding good jobs for dads to earn from home is easier than ever

5. Data Entry

Although a career in data entry may not be the most thrilling, it does promise flexibility, minimal stress, and simplicity, enabling you to focus on your household responsibilities. Most data entry jobs are entry-level and call for proficient keyboarding skills and attention to detail. The key tasks involve entering data supplied by your company into their system, producing spreadsheets that contain virtually no errors, and, most importantly, maintaining the confidentiality of any recorded data.

You’ll find plenty of data entry jobs online, and as a low impact job for dads, it can be perfect for casual work. Check out sites like Indeed and TotalJobs for full time roles, or build your clients on Linkedin, Reddit or Upwork.

6. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Consultant

Making a website alone does not guarantee traffic, but employing appropriate keywords might place the website at the top of search results pages when users look up a particular subject. As an SEO consultant, you might earn a significant income if you are knowledgeable about marketing principles, have effectively created and implemented SEO campaigns, and understand search engine algorithms. You can reach out to potential clients by optimising your website or advertising your skills on freelance websites.

Although SEO consultant is a high paying job and one that is perfect for WFH dads, you do need to have experience running SEO campaigns and generating organic web traffic. And although this might not be a job that earns you $1000 a day, it is very well paid.

7. PPC manager

Another job which involves managing other people’s marketing is the role of a PPC manager. This means you need to set up, run and analyse pay per click campaigns on platforms such as Google Ads, Facebook Ads and other ad platforms. You’ll need to have experience running these campaigns in a business capacity, as you could potentially be playing with a lot of other peoples money.

But if you want to be earning a decent income, this is one of the best jobs for dads to make a good wage for a relatively short amount of time input. You simply setup and run the ads, make sure they’re performing, make a few tweaks every few days and obviously present the results to your client.

8. Transcriptionist

For this job, all you need are some headphones and a computer, and you are good to go. An audio file is played as the transcriptionist types the dialogue and reviews and proofreads the transcripts. These positions require little to no experience. However, a quick typing speed, as well as good grammar and punctuation, are required. It is a good opportunity to increase your income, and you can make close to $50 per hour doing it.

9. Programmer/developer

OK yes, this is a broad industry – with the option for front end, back end and even simple website building being an option these days. If you have experience with any coding language here you’ll be at an advantage. But don’t worry if not because there are tons of places you can learn new skills for free online.

The world of programmers and developers can range from simple WordPress site builders and designers, to full custom built backend systems for huge websites, or building an app using Bubble.

If you love a bit of data, you have an eye for detail and you’re a bit of a nerd then the world of a programmer or web developer might be right up your street.

There has never been a better moment for stay-at-home parents to make money thanks to the growing acceptance of work-from-home employment. So, go forth and use your skills!
