Your Go-To Guide for Making Money as a Stay-at-Home Mom
Welcome to Life with Anastasia — the corner of the internet where staying home with your kids and building financial freedom aren’t mutually exclusive. If you’ve landed here, there’s a good chance you’re a mom who loves her babies AND craves a little financial independence. Same, friend. Same.
I started this blog because I was you: a new mom who just left her full-time job, staring down a daycare invoice that nearly gave me heart palpitations, and wondering how on earth I was going to feel like myself again — financially and personally — while still being present for every single first moment of my son’s life.
Spoiler: I figured it out. And now I’m here to share every single thing I’ve learned so you can, too.

What Life with Anastasia Is Known For
I’m known for making financial independence feel accessible — not intimidating. No finance degrees required here. Clients and readers often tell me I’m especially good at breaking down money stuff into simple, manageable steps that actually fit into real mom life.
This blog was built on the belief that you don’t need a full-time schedule to build a meaningful income. You need the right strategies — and someone who’s already been in the nap-time trenches to show you the way.
What Life with Anastasia Values
Everything I create here is guided by three core beliefs:
1. Financial freedom is for everyone. Not just people with corporate salaries or trust funds. If you’re a mom who wants to contribute financially on your own terms, this space is for you.
2. Real talk over perfection. You’ll never find highlight-reel-only content here. I share what works, what flopped, and everything in between.
3. Family first, always. Every strategy I share is designed to work around your family — not the other way around.
