Having children is one of the joyous things a woman can experience. As we hear the story of the Nativity we are reminded of the overwhelming powers of motherhood.
Maternity conditions have improved dramatically in the last two millennia, as has the role of the mother.
Many women are now choosing to open small businesses for some extra dosh (always handy at this time of year!) and a better work life balance.
With crèche costs becoming prohibitive for many who would return to the workplace, running a business from home can be the perfect opportunity to avoid throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
We’ve selected eight franchises which can be run from home on a part-time basis with low investment requirements, perfect for those would-be mumpreneurs out there. With a franchise or business opportunity, the business has been proven to work for others, so you can get on with making money instead of trying to find and test out a new idea.
