But I know it's harder work than a lot of people think it is, so it's great to hear from mums who are happy and successful running their online shops.

I think most mums are in your position in that they have to start small on a shoestring budget, so it's great to know that this is possible for an online shop. I've not checked out Create before, so thanks for that tip. The URL is http://www.create.net/ Thanks Karen, it’s always good to have a few different opinions on a buisness idea.

I started my business selling my children's outgrown clothes on Ebay and grew it from there. I would agree its hard work but it does allow you the freedom to plan work around your children. I would also strongly recommend the site Create for setting up your own website shop - really low cost and easy to use. best Karen Interesting to read what Trevor had to say although I would say his start up cost might put a few people off.

You can be flexible in your working hours and tailor the business around your family. An online store is a great starting point for a business when you have young children.
