10 New Business Ideas for Moms
Today’s moms are entrepreneurs in the making. So if you’re a mom of any age, you need to start creating. Maybe you’ve already mastered the art of shopping for preschool snacks or weekly workout routines. Or maybe you’re just getting started with your own business. Regardless, there’s no better time to do it than now. So if you’ve been sitting on the idea for a business that you think could take off, make that mental decision to stop holding it in, and just start doing it now.
Here are 10 mom-owned business ideas for inspiration.
1. Anything to do with your kids, even a Mommy & Me business
Ask any mom what she spends her time on and the answer is bound to be “kids.” But those precious little ones don’t stay little forever. So, if you are blessed with little kids at home, now’s the time to figure out a way to tap into that passion and turn it into a business.
2. Tea-making classes for mamas
Make a $1,000 profit in your first year? Yes, please! Starting a tea-making business may seem intimidating, but it’s actually a great idea. By teaching other moms how to make the perfect cup, you’ll teach them skills they can use to sell their own.
3. Pedicure bar
If you’re anything like us, it’s tough to drag yourself out of the house to spend an entire day beautifying — let alone after a long, grueling day at work. But when you need a pampering touch-up, it’s probably the last thing you want to do. So by offering a mommy-only spot in your neighborhood, you’ll be able to “do your nails” without having to drop a bajillion dollars at the spa.
4. Mommy and me clothing line
Your daughter is starting to fill out in her own clothing size, but you know she’ll need something at age
3. A mother and daughter clothing business
A Clothing Line is a perfect way to turn something you love into an income stream.
5. Tea blending classes
Did you know that chamomile tea can help calm your child? Or that a proper, warm cup of tea can help you fall asleep faster? These are just a few of the benefits of tea, and if you’re a mom, you’re probably very familiar with all of them.
6. Homeschooling/personal training
If you feel trapped in the house most of the day, and your kids love to stay busy, why not tap into that passion and turn it into a business? Finding kids homeschooling programs is tough, but you can build a business around the curriculum you offer.
7. Mommy and me summer camp
Summer camp is expensive — but not if you start your own.
8. DIY home spa
No kitchen? No problem! If you feel like you’ve run out of ideas for things to do with your kids, try renting a room in someone’s house or apartment and turning it into a “mommy and me” spa.
9. Triathlon coaching
Inspired by all the super-fit moms out there? You can tap into your own athleticism and turn your passion for fitness into a business.
10. Pet sitting
Tired of those pesky rodents? Turns out, you can make a mint helping people with their pets. Even if you’re already a stay-at-home mom, these ideas are so fun and you’re sure to make at least a little bit of extra money. When in doubt, just start. The idea that all of your ideas will fail is just that, an idea.
These ideas may be corny, but we promise they’ll work.
