Choose your activity (something you can do when the baby sleeps, for example)
Have a little money before launching. Think of the money you'll need to start and especially to be able to wait to receive the first check. Do you have a little money aside or a personal line of credit to pay for start-up and to live while having a bit of time to find good contracts and to attend training? Prepare a budget and maybe your busniess plan ...
Whether surround (use the services of others to help you). For example, a good accountant, busniess coach, a webmaster for your site, a support group, etc.
Create a workspace at home, office space and storage space to organize your documents and your products.

Create your mental space to explain to people in your life (neighbors, friends, spouse) that such a time at such an hour you are at work and you need to concentrate. They may be able to help you by taking a look at the children, for example, while you make a conference call?
Delegating (at home and outside). For example, sometimes using the services of a cleaning lady, the services of another mom to watch the children or virtual assistant services, a graphic designer, a webmaster or other services that can be offered.
Choose a place of co-working or virtual office. There are many possibilities to rent a virtual or shared office. Choose by type of activity you lead, the number of hours per month that you think need. Accessibility, address, of course, cost and available services (reception, telephone, WiFi, etc.).
For the choice of office ask yourself the following questions:
Are there other busniesses are located in areas compatible / complementary to yours? Does this could help you to create synergy with other companies? Do potential clients?
Is this is as flexible contract? Or are you obliged to sign a permanent contract of one year or more? Do you start by using the postal address for your mail and increase the services you use afterwards?
The important thing is to have a busniess address at the beginning when you have a busniess from home and it would at least have a post office box to receive mail.
Why?
First, you do not want your customers to come home without warning ...
Second, anyone could use Google Map to see that this company is actually done in a single residence. This is not always a good idea if you want to project an established corporate image in order to have new customers.
Yes it is possible to work from home while being both a caring mother and an accomplished entrepreneur. However, we must be to organize and to surround, you must have a mentor / coach in busniess and / or a support group. We must also use the services of professionals and learn to delegate tasks at home and abroad.
