Lisa Della Bella, Graphic Designer, Mother of one, from Boynton Beach

Job location: Owner and designer of Peadab Designs (www.peadabdesigns.com). She works from home designing birth announcements, baby shower invitations, baby shower favors, religious invitations, birthday invitations, note cards and more. Experience: 3 years "Right after the birth of my son, I decided to start doing birth announcements. Originally, I wanted to focus on in-vitro announcements for women who went through in-vitro and wanted to tell their story of their miracle birth since that's what I went through. On my own birth announcement, I included pictures of my embryos, the ultrasound and then his picture when born. I got so many compliments on them, and that's why I decided to start doing it for others." Why this job works for her: "I'm able to stay home with my son and do what I love to do, plus make a little extra money. I love being able to work from home and also be available to take my son to school, doctors' appointments, etc. It can be challenging, though, when I get busy and can't play with him as much. But I'd rather do this than have him in day care or being watched by someone else."

*** I'd just like to add, that there's nothing wrong with putting your child in day care or having a nanny if that's what you need to do. I just happen to be lucky enough that I can stay home with my son and work from home too.
