Jennifer Shircel from Mom On A Budget is this week's featured Super WAHM! We asked Jennifer a few questions on how it's like to be a work at home mother:

1. Tell us your website name and address and what it's all about.

My name is Jennifer Shircel and I own www.MomOnABudget.com. My website is all about helping moms (and dads) save and earn money every day. I have money saving tips, recipes, beauty tips, gift ideas, how to decorate on a budget, home remedies, plus work at home opportunities and ideas to help moms start earning money while home with the kids!

2. How long have you been a work at home mother?

I have been a WAHM for just over 2 years now. When my son was born I left my job as a cosmetology instructor so that I could stay home and raise him. I immediately started working on MomOnABudget, but didn't get it off the ground until March of 2004.

3. How many kids do you have and what are their names?

I have 2 children, both boys. The oldest is Braxton and he is 2 and my youngest just turned 2 months old and his name is Carter. Wanna see a picture?! ;) (editor's note: I was informed her boys are on the home page of her site! Two cuties!!)

4. Is there any advice or tips you can give someone who wishes to become a work at home mother?

Tips and Advice?! You bet!! If you want to work at home - you can. BUT, you have to be determined and know what you want to do. You have to realize that it's not a piece of cake and it takes some work. There are SO MANY scams out there that make you think that you can easily earn $5,000 a month right away. While this can be true, it definitely does not happen overnight! Decide what you like and what you don't. Do you want to own a business or have a JOB? Then write down pros and cons and go from there!

Do YOU know someone who should be nominated for our Super WAHM award? Let us know!
