MumMa were the winners of our "Show us ya workstation" competition, and so have won a whole bunch of free advertising on the NZWAHP's site and Facebook Page. Congratulations to you, and I hope that this helps you get more interest in your business.
Where are you located?
MumMa is located in Linwood, Christchurch-Earthquake Central (lol) Tell us about you and your family We are sisters from Christchurch who have 5 children between us and a passion for fashion so what better way to combine the two! Malia: I have three girls, Madeline 7yrs, Felicity 6yrs and Daisy 1yr Mareta: I have two boys, Samuel 5yrs & Sonny 3yrs
What made you want to be a Work at Home Parent? Malia: With two school aged children and a toddler, that in itself is a Full time job! Working away from home either Full time or Part time wasn't an option for us. So being able to do something that I love and have an eager interest in from home is a blessing.
What is your business all about? Quality unique original children's clothing in additon offering accessories for the home, mums and kids!! What made you pick the kind of business that you did? Interest in fashion, but incorporating this with being a full time mum with 3 children I was able to have a creative outlet but also include the girls in the business. The girls contribute to modelling and helping as much as they can with the MumMa business.
How do you balance your work/family/you-time? As best we can! Being countries apart (Malia in Christchurch & Mareta in Sydney) is very hard to co-ordinate time and also brainstorm ideas. So thankful for technology - we communicate regularly via Skype and also Facebook! Social Media has been a fantastic avenue in marketing and advertising. Working around the kids has always been hard but have managed and thankful for the support of our parents who help look after the girls when hunting for material or when busy sewing :)
