Guide to Working Mothers


Working mothers get creative to find professional solutions for personal juggling acts


The task of finding working mother jobs that allow you to be fulfilled professionally while caring for your family has created a cottage industry in which working mothers partner with each other to help each other succeed. Take advantage of the experiences of other working moms to mimic their successes and avoid their pitfalls.

Explore the resources for working mothers to find out what's available for you and others in your situation. Talk to mothers working from home, mothers working part-time and mothers working condensed work weeks to learn the pros and cons of each situation to find out if it's something that would benefit you and your situation.

1. Consider job sharing as a solution for working moms.

2. Propose telecommuting as an option for working mothers.

3. Explore flexible scheduling options for moms in the workplace.


Action Steps

The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Split a full-time job between two working mothers Prorating the pay and benefits of one full-time job between two working moms allows each woman to be professionally satisfied and still take care of her family. Take advantage of companies that can help you not only find job sharing opportunities but also job sharing partners so everyone is happy with the results.

I recommend:  JobShareConnection.com is a company dedicated to helping you find a professional partnership with other moms in the workplace to find solutions that work for everyone. WorkOptions.com offers you support in finding a job sharing opportunity, helping you understand the pros and cons of such an arrangement and providing you with advice to help you succeed.

Find a telecommuting job that allows you to work from home Working from home, either full-time or part-time, allows working mothers to add more family time to their day by being physically present in the home and combining work and parenting in a successful manner. Use the resources available to find tips on achieving the best of both worlds.

I recommend:  BetweenMoms.com has a section devoted to helping women find telecommuting resources for working mothers. FlexJobs is widely recognized as a quality source of jobs for working mothers. They go to great lengths to insure the job offers are legitimate and help you find exactly what you're looking for.

Take advice from working moms who can help you succeed Networking is the perfect way to learn from those who have gone before you and allows you to avoid common mistakes. Learn from the successes of others and share your own experiences so everyone can find the balance between professional and personal fulfillment.

I recommend:  Mom Corps. is a company designed specifically to help working mothers find the flexible scheduling options that work best for you. Forte Foundation helps everyone succeed from part time working mothers to working mothers in the workplace through networking and supportive advice.
