Hope you all had a fantastic Mother’s Day – whether that meant breakfast in bed, a rare moment of peace, or a lovingly handmade card (with just the right amount of glitter). But now that the flowers are wilting and the chocolates have mysteriously disappeared, let’s talk about something that could make every day feel more balanced – setting up your own care and support micro-enterprise.

For mums, running a small care business isn’t just about earning an income; it’s about taking control. Imagine setting your own hours, working around the school run, and choosing the clients you support. No more missing the school time drop-offs and pick-ups! Plus, if you’ve spent years juggling family life, you’ve already mastered patience, organisation, entertaining, and the ability to multitask – skills that make you a natural in the care sector! So why not turn your caring nature into a flexible, fulfilling career that works for you?

Big love to all the mums, step-mums, foster mums, pet mums (you may need flexibility too), grandmas, aunties, and anyone else who fills a motherly role – you’re all superheroes in our community!
