Find flexible work that fits your family
Tell us the hours you can keep and the work you know. We look for jobs that fit both, anywhere in the United States, and we never charge you.
How it works
- Send the form below with your hours, your ZIP code and the work you have done.
- We call you to talk through your skills, the pay you need and the hours that work around your family.
- We look for roles that fit your week, and we confirm the hours with the employer first.
- We describe each role to you and share your details with the employer only if you agree.
- We set up interviews around your schedule. If you are offered the job, you agree pay and a start date with the employer.
What to send us
Your hours
The days and times you can work, and the ones you cannot. Exact times help: “Monday to Friday, 9:15 to 2:45” tells us more than “school hours”.
Where you live
Your ZIP code and how far you can travel each day, or whether you can only work from home.
Your work history
Your last few jobs, with rough dates. Time out of work to care for children is normal, so mention it plainly.
Licenses and certificates
Anything a role might need, such as a pharmacy technician registration, a coding credential or an insurance license.
Where to start
Our schedule guides show what each pattern looks like in a real week, from school hours to evening shifts. Our career guides cover fourteen jobs where flexible hours are common, with federal pay figures and training routes. If you live in one of our 20 state guides, read yours for the local minimum wage, sick leave and child care help.
How to spot a job scam
Job scams aim at people looking for flexible or home-based work. The Federal Trade Commission’s job scam guidance lists the warning signs. These are the ones we see aimed at parents most often:
Paying to get the job
The FTC warns about offers where you end up paying for starter kits, so-called training or certifications that turn out to be useless. A real employer does not charge you to start work.
A check and a request to send money back
The FTC says no honest employer will send you a check to deposit and then tell you to send on part of the money, or buy gift cards with it. The check will bounce, and the bank will want you to repay it.
Bank details before an offer
Do not give your bank account, card or Social Security number to someone who has not offered you a job in writing. A real employer asks for payroll details after you accept an offer.
Report it

Hiring? Tell us the role, the hours and the ZIP code. Looking for work? Tell us what you do and the hours you can keep.
When you send the form, your answers come to SingleMothers.us through LeadConnector, the service that runs this form for us. A person on our team reads each message and replies by email or phone, using the details you give. Job seekers never pay us a fee.
Questions from job seekers
Do you charge anything at any stage?
No. Job seekers never pay us anything, before or after they are hired. The employer you work for pays you directly.
Will employers know I am a single parent?
Only if you choose to tell them. We describe you by your skills, your experience and the hours you can keep.
I have been out of work for a few years. Can you still help?
Yes. Time out to raise children is common, and we treat it as ordinary. Tell us what you did before and any skills you have kept up, and we will be honest about the roles that fit.
