Working Mum

Drawing on the real-life experiences of working mothers, this is a guide for mothers who need to know how to juggle successfully their children and career. This guide answers vital questions, such as: What are my maternity/paternity rights?; What are the advantages and disadvantages of different childcare options?; What childcare can I afford?; How can I compete with colleagues who have no family responsibilities?; and many more. It helps parents to look at the combination of career and parenthood in a variety of ways. There are case studies by other working parents which look at all sorts of circumstances, age brackets and job types to show what lessons can be learnt.
