How Can a SAHM and Homeschooling Mom Grow Her Business with TPC and CS?

In summary, balancing the responsibilities of being a stay-at-home mom, homeschooling, and growing a Pampered Chef business can be challenging but achievable with effective time management and support. It is possible to make a significant income with Pampered Chef while still being a full-time SAHM and homeschooling mom, by being consistent and utilizing resources provided by the company. Involving children in the business can be a fun and educational experience, and tips for successfully managing time between work and homeschooling include setting a schedule, prioritizing tasks, and utilizing a designated workspace. Your homeschooling network can also be a valuable resource for growing your business, through hosting parties, collaborating with other homeschooling moms, and getting creative with promotions.

I'm hoping to make many more! I joined TPC in January and CS as soon as I got my consultant number! I am a SAHM/Homeschooling Mom to my four kiddos, Henk (14), Adrianna (13), Piet (8) and Will (5). Just got home from Conference (Wave 1) and looking forward to growing my business!
 
WELCOME to our crazy branch of the PC tree!

BTW... love the kids' names... how do you pronounce the 1st and 3rd?
 
Alright! Welcome to PC and CS! Just a word of warning that this message board is VERY addicting!

Thanks for the welcome! All the kids' names are Dutch as DH is Dutch (as in still has his accent!). Henk is pronounced just like we would pronounce Hank (it's short for Hendrik) and Piet is pronounced just like we would pronounce Pete (it's short for Pieter).

I have lived in both Chester Co. and Delaware Co. (grew up in Del.Co. in Springfield, right near Media and Brookhaven!), and now we live in Mont. Co. I can't believe you "switched sides" - isn't it completely different out there?? When I tell people I live in Philly, sometimes they tell me they know someone in the Pittsburgh area, and I tell them, "oh, no, other side of the state, COMPLETELY different!!" ;) Hope you're enjoying it out there! Say Hi to all of my Penn State friends out there!!

Yeah, I know. My sis and her DH are PSU alums and still live in State College. I went to Bloomsburg and certainly know that lions are everywhere!By the way, the biggest difference with being here in the "west" is that they call soda pop!

I was gonna say...
I can spot Dutch names anywhere and I knew you all MUST be Dutch!
I grew up in a colony of the Netherlands and speak Dutch myself.
Welkom! :)

Mijn hemel! :eek: Ik had echt niet verwacht dat je het zo goed zou kunnen spreken!
Hartstikke goed, ja, voor een amerikaanse!
Ik heb ook niet veel gelegenheiden om het te gebruiken maar gelukkig is me zus weer hier in amerika [vanuit zuid africa] dus kunnen we meer regelmatig praaten.
Wat leuk om nederlands met je te spreken!
Kunnen je kinderen het ook?

Thanks for the welcome, Chris. Most of my posts are in English as well! :)Kimberly....mijn zwager woont momenteel in Z.A.. Hij woont in Johannesburg. Mijn kinderen kunnen wat Nederlands verstaan als het niet te snell gaat. "Eten" wordt geroepen als we aan tafel willen en natuurlijk verstaan ze wat scheldwoorden! Die zijn de eerste woorden je leert in een vreemde taal! LOL!

Ja, echtwaar! lol! Welke scheldwoorden gebruik je...want ik kan niets herinneren nu! Wat vindt ik leuk is dat als ik een engels wordt niet snel genoeg kan herinneren dan zeg ik het nederlands woordt maar. Ik hou ook van woorden zoals "ontdeugend" en "vrijporstig". Ik ken nog geen engels woordt that can replace those two. They just sum it up!
Me kinderen spreken nog geen nederlands maar kunnen wel in negerengels zingen...dat is een surinaamse taal. Ik heb een andere zus die in Rustenburg woont...dichtbij Jo'burg!
