Kit

 
I've been busy adding to my family since I last emailed you: Kit was born on the 4th of March, so I'm not taking on any PR work right now. There is still plenty going on, however.
 
 
 
Read on for a competition to win what every mum needs, help with managing your life from Consider it Done!
 
And remember to visit www.FamilyFriendlyWorking.co.uk for profiles of sucessful mumpreneurs, news on flexible working and business advice. Over at www.ACPR.co.uk, there are book reviews and PR tips every week on the blog.
 
Best wishes,

Antonia

Consider It Done 
 
If you've got your hands full, Consider it Done can help.
 
With working mothers on their team, Consider it Done knows how tough it can be to juggle everything. Consider it Done offers organising services to people under pressure. Think of them as a PA and friend rolled into one. Leave the mundane and time consuming with them, and in turn you can save endless time, tap into a wealth of knowledge and contacts that could save you money, and put yourself back in control. They can arrange everything from finding you a babysitter at short notice, or organising school holiday entertainment, to getting the name tags sewn into uniforms. 
 
Win: the 1st five people to email Sue Reeve after receiving the newsletter will be given an hour's organising time with Consider it Done's compliments.
 
Exclusive reader offer: All readers can benefit from a No Joining Fee offer in April.

Do you love to know how other women do it? 

Read the Mumpreneur Profiles over at the Family Friendly Working Blog. In May there is a travel theme, PLUS a week of mums with breastfeeding based businesses to tie in with Breastfeeding Awareness Week, 10-16 May.
 
I have space for one more mum whose work is linked to breastfeeding . In June I could do with more mums in Industry and those who have Invented a Product. July/August are for any business again.
