About us

We are the UK's first online job directory of part-time jobs for full time Mums!

The site has been created by a Mum - I have two children Felix (aged 5) and Maddie (aged 3 and a half). I was inspired by many playgroup conversations with other Mums about not wanting to go back to work full-time, but wanting to earn a little bit of money or to take on a new challenge...but finding it impossible to find anything we could do that wouldn't involve full-time childcare.

The aim of this site is to provide information for Mums who want to earn extra cash, to top up the family income - the intention has never been that you will become the main breadwinner in your family! The kinds of jobs that are suitable rarely (unless your children are at full-time School and you can devote 6 hours a day) net the equivalent of a full-time salary.

The jobs have all been vetted for their family-friendliness, in terms of fitting in around the children and your other family commitments.

Here is what parents are saying about Mum and Working!

Just wanted to write and tell you what a fabulous website you have!

I have just bought for the first time, the magazine "With kids" where I read about your website and immediately logged on - and was addicted!!

I was all set to hang out my washing, clean out the goldfish bowl and pair up all the family's odd socks and none of it got done!! It truly is a wealth of information, advice and fun and I cannot emphasis enough how much a website like this has been needed. I will have no hesitation in recommending you to family and friends and congratulate you on your forward thinking, hard work and brilliant idea!

Here is what advertisers are saying about Mum and Working!

Mum and Working is great value for money - we've seen a fantastic response!

David Cox, Music with Mummy

We are very pleased with our experience to date with Mum and Working, and find that advertising on the Mum & Working website provides us with high quality, relevant referrals. The site is well presented and we believe that it offers excellent value for money. We would recommend Mum & Working to any business that wishes to attract high quality leads for business opportunities suited to mums.

Natalie Iken, Does My Tum Look Big In This

We had an amazing response to our ad with mumandworking from day one! The quality of applicants was very high. The team were very helpful in promoting us and ensuring that our advertisement continued to be viewed by hundreds of people. We have no hesitation in recommending mumandworking. If you want a huge response of good quality applicants and very good value advertising - this is the place to be!

Sam Willoughby, Whats On 4 Little Ones

We had an excellent response to the advertisement and received very good applications. We interviewed 2 of them and the successful applicant, Louise, joined us last Monday. She is working 9.30 to 11.30 Mon-Fri, and will vary the hours/work from home during the school holidays. She has already settled in very well and is a fantastic asset to us.

This seems to be a win win situation for all concerned, and those organisations that for whatever reason do not consider recruiting in this way are clearly missing a valuable opportunity.

Thank you for making this happen for us!

Peter Gladdish, LAVAT

We are astounded by the response we are receiving to our advert on the mumandworking site. The amount of space we are allocated means we can give a real insight into what is involved working for Small Steps and over a six month period we have had literally hundreds of enquiries! Mumandworking is obviously meeting the needs of a huge workforce out there who have a considerable amount of expertise in the workplace but who want to balance this with family life.

Cora Palmer, Cora Publications, publishers of Small Steps magazine.

I wanted you to know that I have already had calls regarding the advert and am very excited! In truth, I was a little sceptical on how well the advert would a) reach my target audience b) be received but so far I am very impressed.
