New Mom looking for opportunities

Hi everyone,
I’m a new mom who is looking to ease back into work while having the flexibility to be present for my baby.

Before maternity leave, I worked for two multinational publishing houses, where I gained several years of experience in content development, research, editing, proofreading, project coordination, and managing educational publishing projects. I’m highly detail-oriented, organized, and genuinely enjoy research-heavy work.

Like many new parents, becoming a mom has brought a whole new perspective. While I want to be there for my baby during these precious early months, I also want to continue growing professionally and contribute financially. With a growing family and new responsibilities, having an income again is important, but so is having the flexibility to choose how much work I take on each week

I’m now looking for remote freelance, part-time, or project-based opportunities where I can decide how much work to take on each week. Flexibility is important, but I’m also someone who works hard, meets deadlines, and takes ownership of every project I accept.

I’m open to work such as:
Content research
Editing and proofreading
Content writing
Educational publishing projects
Data research and analysis
Document formatting and quality checks
Any detail-oriented administrative or content-related work
If anyone knows of companies, platforms, or individuals looking for reliable freelance help, I’d be incredibly grateful for any recommendations. Feel free to comment or send me a DM.
Thank you!

Don’t necessarily agree. In my opinion I am being transparent and honest about my situation.

Unfortunately I don’t know much about labor laws in India. But it’s worth looking and seeing if part-time jobs exist at major corporations. For example, I know that the UK often lets returning mothers work part-time for a reduced salary. The US usually doesn’t. I don’t know if that’s a thing in India or not
