What do you do to make money and stay home with your kids?

I am 24 years old and getting married this year. We plan on having children within the next few years. I am an LPN and work full-time now but I would like to stay home with my child when they are young. I don't have any family that live close and wouldn't feel comfortable leaving them at a daycare. This is something I've been thinking about and would like to start working out a plan before that day arrives. So what do you do in order to be a stay at home mom?
