I am a work at home mum, running my business from our converted garage, but before September last year when Harvey and I swapped roles, I combined the business with being a full-time mum to our two sons.
After working full-time in an office until Noah was born, I decided not to go back to the same situation, but to freelance from home instead. This meant I could spend time raising our boys and work on building my business - suited all of us perfectly... Johanna |
You might remember from a previous post that I don’t really fit into any mothering definition... SAHM, WAHM, Working mother. I consider myself an In-Between mum, and judging by the comments on that post many of you obviously do too! T he challenge with being an “Inbetweener” is that it can sometimes feel like you have to be all things to all people... Cath |

Having been a WAHM (no, sadly, not “what a hot mummy” as I had originally thought, but rather a “work at home mum”) for near on five years now, I have come across many ways in which one can work from home.
Some are fairly obvious and standard, and others a little more out of the box. Or in the box. Literally. There are many, many options you can choose from to be working from or at home... Mad Cow |
