Happy Hubbub

Calling all work-from-home parents! We are building a community of coworking parents in Preston, in Melbourne’s inner north. Happy Hubbub is a shared office space with high-speed wifi internet, printing/scanning facilities, networking opportunities and, crucially, an on-site short day care facility, allowing parents of preschoolers to work or study in the Hubbub with their children on-site but not under their feet, being looked after by qualified childcare professionals. With more small businesses today being started by women than men – often part-time at first whilst juggling child-rearing – a Hubbub membership will help relieve the pressures of fluctuating business demands, especially as many long daycare centres are unable to provide additional care on an ad-hoc basis or at short notice. The Hubbub is also a valuable tool for employers who embrace flexible working arrangements. Allowing employees coming back from parental leave to work remotely out of the Hubbub will ease the transition back to work, enabling parents to get on with their job in a professional setting yet stay close to their child, drop the commute to work and facilitate continued breastfeeding. Services: ➢ High-speed wifi internet ➢ Bookable meeting rooms and private offices ➢ Printing/scanning facilities ➢ Networking events ➢ Profile in hubbub business directory ➢ Kitchen with espresso coffee machine ➢ On-site short day care.
