At Home Side Gig — Park Slope, Brooklyn

For Park Slope Parents: Your Day Already Qualifies

7:15am. You've already made breakfast, packed two lunches, and broken up an argument about socks. The school drop-off is in 20 minutes.

By 9am you've done more than most people accomplish in a full workday. And none of it paid you anything.

Shift pays $20/hr to record everyday household tasks on your phone. If you're a parent in Park Slope, your daily routine is one of the most recording-rich schedules in the city.


Walk through a typical Park Slope parent day with Shift

7:00am — Breakfast Making eggs, toast, fruit for two kids and maybe yourself. Record it. That's 20–30 minutes of cooking footage, which is exactly what Shift's footage buyers need.

8:00am — School drop-off The walk to PS 321 or PS 107. The routine errand to the corner store on the way back. Recordable.

9:30am — The apartment You're home. The kitchen is a disaster. You spend 30 minutes cleaning up breakfast, wiping down surfaces, starting a load of laundry. Record it. Another 30 minutes at $20/hr.

12:30pm — Lunch Even a simple meal counts. 20 minutes, recorded.

4:00pm — Pickup, then grocery run The Food Co-op on Union, Key Food on 5th, Whole Foods on 3rd. Your weekly shop is a legitimate Shift session. Record the trip and the unpack when you get home.

6:30pm — Dinner A real cooked meal for a family is 45–60 minutes of high-value cooking footage. This is the single best session type on the platform.


Why parent routines record especially well

Footage buyers are specifically looking for households that cook regularly, clean real kitchens, and manage busy home environments. A Park Slope parent's apartment at 7pm — three burners going, kids setting the table, laundry in the machine — is exactly that.

It's not staged. It's not curated. It's what they're paying for.


The one adjustment: hit record before you start

That's the only thing that changes. You were going to make dinner anyway. You were going to do that laundry. You were going to clean up the kitchen. Now you open the app first.


What you can earn

Two hours of recorded tasks a day — which a Park Slope parent easily clears across breakfast, cleanup, and dinner — equals $1,200/month at $20/hr.

No commute. No interview. No schedule beyond the one you already keep.
