Cleaning job

I have started a cleaning business, called Green Clean. I provide all the cleaners and they are all non toxic and biodegradable.

I had my second job today. I realize although the more natural cleaners do work they require more elbow grease.
The job today took me two hours, which wasn't too bad. I made $60. (About $10 of that covers supplies.)

My goal is to get 4-5 clients a week.

I am trying this as a business because in 2-3 hours work I can make $60-$75. This way I can still devote most of my time to homeschooling.

The thing is my heart is in childcare, but working 50-60 hours a week I make $100 per child.
I can have about 2 kids in my house, but then we have to be home all week and can't do co-op. That would be about $200 a week working Mon.-Fri. 8:00am-6:00pm.

With cleaning I can work 15 hours a week and make about $300 (5 jobs, 2-3 hours each at $60 a job.) Even with driving time, it is only about 20 hours.

Of course right now I have 1 client, once a month, so I am far from 5 jobs a week.

I have made up some business cards and will start leaving at business's and on community bulletin boards.

Please pray if this is God's will for my life, and if so that I would fill up with clients quickly.
