Redefining The Stay At Home Mom
This entrepreneur has an unusual schedule: She gets a lot done during nap time.
Maureen Ramos balances her time caring for 8-year-old twin boys and a 23-month-old daughter and working on two home-based businesses — Corporate Greeting Cards, a greeting card marketing business, and Samica Bags, a reusable grocery bag retailer.
As Ramos got to know other families in her Naples neighborhood, she discovered a “little underworld” of work-at-home moms.
So, she decided to found a “mompreneur” networking group with a handful of other women, and when work outgrew naptime, she started a co-op day care.
One day a week, other moms drop their kids off at Ramos’ home and she takes care of them for three hours. In exchange, she gets three-hour blocks of child-free time.
“Do you know what I can do in three hours?” she said, with a laugh. “I think you become more efficient when you have children. You have to.”
