Being a work-at-home parent can sometimes be a challenge. When you work at home you are dealing with your family and your business in one place. As soon as you start your business be sure that your family understands that when you are working on your home business you are not available for other things.Because of this reason it is best to have a separate (office) room in the house for your business. Your family will need to understand the rules. The rules being, that if you are in "home" office you are at work and are unavailable for other household duties, just as if you were at your office out of the house. It may be hard to lay down, however, your family needs to understand that when you are in your office working that room is out-of-bounds to other members of the family.
Having your own home business means having the discipline to set regular office hours. By letting your family know the hours that you will be working, they will understand that you are not available for household chores or tasks as you are working just as if you had a regular job out of the house. Friends and family members will need to understand that is not reasonable for them to expect you to drop everything whenever they need you.
Additional having a home based business, is that you may want to have a separate telephone line for business calls only. Your family members need to realize that they should not answer your business line. You can set up your business line with an answering machine so that it will take messages for you in a professional manner.
You can work your home business around your family, for example with the taking the kids to and from school. If you have to take your kids to school at 7:30 in the morning, then when you dropped them off you will work until you need to pick them up again. If this is not leave enough hours in the day to run your business, then your family needs to realize that once they come home you may need to work for a few more hours. As long as you set up some sort of routine that your family understands between personal and business, it will make the transition easier for everybody.
