WAHMs Are Staying Involved
Momtrepreneurs are a new breed of stay-at-home moms who bring income into the household coffers while still having the time to cheer kids on at school sports.
As children returned to school this week, three mothers who work from home shared with the Saturday Dispatch why they chose to opt out of the formal work environment – while still keeping their earning powers through work they generated themselves.
“After working in a marketing and corporate events environment for 10 years, I decided when I was pregnant that I wanted to be my own boss. I didn’t want a nanny raising my children,” Nahoon photographer and wedding planner Candice Dollery said.
“I wanted to be a ‘career’ stay-at-home mom.” Dollery is a mother to two children; the youngest started Grade 1 this week.
Having a studio at her Nahoon home has enabled Dollery to be home with her children after school. She runs her business during school hours and some weekends, and would “never, ever” return to working for another boss.

There is something very awesome and special about being able to stay at home with your kids knowing YOU are the one raising them while still also being able to bring in some sort of income to also help provide to the household. It’s almost like your super women and your accomplishing all of these many tasks all in one day’s effort!

It always excites me to see whenever women put up their own businesses and become independent. Mompreneurs have great insights into marketing gaps and the effort they put in to juggle their time to balance home and business is really amazing. Cheers to all the moms who give it a go! I hope we will continue to see the rise of mompreneurs as future leaders of our businesses and communities. http://www.sphinxx.com.au
