Mums in business
Having a baby is one of the single biggest challenges you will
face in your lifetime. It also brings the most rewards. For some
Kiwi mums the births of their children creates an opportunity for
them to combine their pre-baby skills and knowledge with their new
family commitments, for others starting a home business is a way to
bring in a much-needed second income without sacrificing time with
their children.
OHbaby! was founded by one such Mum, Angela Pedersen, in 2000.
Although her first child, Ella, wasn't born until 2005, Angela
wanted to create a business that she could run from home whilst
still being a stay at home Mum. The success of OHbaby! is a
testament to the many hours that Angela, and her husband Royce, put
into developing the site in those early days, and that they have
continued to put in over the ensuing years.
In 2010 OHbaby! is still staffed entirely by parents, many of
whom work from home, and we know how much time and energy goes
into running a home business, especially when you are also running
a busy household!
Our Mums In Business directory profiles some homegrown success
stories, women who have taken the plunge and established their own
home businesses offering a huge variety of products and
services.
We hope you'll help us support them!
