Cleaning houses for income

So I made another post here a while back where a person replied asking for proof of my situation which I sent and offered help and a job opportunity that turned out to be not real.

I have been financially struggling since my separation raising my autistic child myself (I am also diagnosed autistic) and living back with my mother who is also struggling financially. I’m currently looking for a job I can fit into the free hours I have being my sons only caregiver besides 20 hours of respite care a month. He also attends a lot of different therapies with me so my schedule is hard for employers but, still looking. In the mean time I’ve been cleaning friends houses and I thought maybe I could expand my cleaning to taking on other jobs and maybe cars also? I don’t know if this would work or not but I wanted to try, I made a list of some cleaning supplies to get me started. I know lists do better but I know it’s still a Long shot. We’re on food stamps so our food is secure, it’s everything else that’s hard (car, rent, bills) if you are able and willing to help I appreciate it a ton and if not it’s totally okay. Asking for handouts is hard and I don’t want anyone to feel taken advantage of. If anything on my list is found cheaper/better or it’s not what I should get over another thing please lmk. I’m just going off what I don’t currently have/use and could be helpful. Hopefully the link works. Also any remote job leads would be a blessing as well. I’m a vet tech by trade but started my own business that recently went under so I can do a variety of things and I’m a fast learner. Really just trying to be creative to figure out how to do this alone. Child care alone is expensive, more so with an autistic child, but if I could get a steady stream of income under my belt to start I could maybe pay for that and open my hours up. As it is my mother watches him while I clean in the hours and days she’s able to. Either way thank you for reading! Please be kind with advice, I really am trying.
