My mother came to the UK just over 30 years ago. She had 2 children in tow (my brother and sister). She didn't have a penny and worked as a midwife for the NHS doing long hours. She is a strong woman and before she retired, she never lost the drive to pursue her career and life goals. I have a strong admiration for mothers who want to get back into work and don't see having a child as a career killer. Businesses need to shift perspective to support working mothers.When Russell and Juliet approached me with the opportunity to help on this project, it got me excited. I look after the web platform for 2to3days taking direction from both Russell and Juliet and executing it with an external agile team.The irony is that I work on this project 2 to 3 days a week. I may not be a mother, but I hope that my contribution gives more mothers the confidence to continue their career.
