In times like these, I’m grateful for an alternative.
🌼Balancing work and life is difficult, but it can be done. That's why many people choose to work from home if possible. But many think that because you don't leave home, you don't have a real career. This is especially the case for mums.
🌼Hi, I’m Anthea, I have a background in healthcare, a mum of 2 and have been enjoying working part time from home for the past 2 years. It’s been absolutely life changing!
🌼When we went into lockdown, I was interesting to see how my online business would hold up during these unprecedented times and it has been pleasantly rewarding for many of us.
🌼You see, I started working this business because I wanted an extra income and more time at home. I’m thankful now because my hubby is out of work due to this situation however my business is still ticking over. It’s so relieving.
🌼And in times like these, when everyone is home, I make sure to implement my (Work At Home Mum) schedule into four sections:
- Family time
- Business time
- Household time
- Me time
🌼The pro’s, since the kids are home is that we implemented a learning curriculum on household chores before their devices come out. They will be A+ students before this lock down is over.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
