Dani, a Cuban mother in the U.S., earns $60 in 2.5 hours with Spark Driver, a delivery app. Her viral video inspires other mothers, highlighting the flexibility for those with little time.


A Cuban resident in the United States, identified as @soydani06200 on TikTok, has gone viral after sharing how she managed to earn 60 dollars in just two and a half hours working as a Walmart delivery driver through the Spark Driver app, all while being a full-time mother to a baby just five and a half months old.

“If you want to know how I made a total of 60 dollars in two hours and 30 minutes while being a full-time mom to a 5-and-a-half-month-old baby, stay tuned because I’m going to tell you how and what I did”, the video begins, which has generated dozens of positive comments from other mothers interested in following her lead.

Dani explains that she left her baby with the father, who was at home that day, and decided to use that free time to feel productive. “I came to Walmart to do delivery,” she says, while demonstrating how the app works, which first verifies the driver’s identity and then assigns the orders.

During the available time, the Cuban accepted several assignments and shared her progress in real-time with her followers. "I recommend this app because if you can't work full-time like I do, on a day when you have time, you can go out and make some money like I did, earning 60 dollars in two and a half hours." she added.

Reactions from other mothers

The video has sparked the interest of many other mothers and TikTok users, who left comments such as:

“Good option for those of us who don't have much free time. Extra money always comes in handy,” wrote one user. “I need to learn how to drive to do this!! Thanks for the tip,” commented another. “I love that you're so entrepreneurial,” said one follower.

Dani also answered several questions about how to apply, detailing that it is necessary to have an insured vehicle and to pass a background check, in addition to initially registering on the official Spark Driver website.
