Many women, especially those who have given up a career to start a family, feel unable or too intimidated to start a business. If you’re the breadwinner of a family, it’s likely you think entrepreneurship is a bit risky. Yet here are a few reasons why so many more women are choosing to take the step and succeeding as valuable mumpreneurs.

For the women who stayed at home, they immediately picked up skills to keep the house running like clockwork. Hearty meals were being made from scratch, blankets were knitted to keep tots warm, the smell of gingerbread wafted through the house and the blooming flower borders could have competed at Chelsea.

Those who returned to work learnt how to make the most of the time available and every single one of those women became a project manager overnight. Strict routines were implemented to ensure everyone got to where they needed to be, career ladders continued to be climbed and the candle often burned at both ends. These mums acquired immediate skills that could be put to good use and where better than in business?

Many mumpreneurs are quick-thinking, creative and have an enviable ability to multi-task. Throw in determination, passion and resilience, and you’ve got an ideal MD. If you dream about starting a business but you can’t think what to do, consider all the amazing things you do daily for your family. You really could make it work and become a very successful business owner. Based on the skills you’ve acquired since starting a family, here are some of the great businesses you could establish and develop:

• Event planning
• Virtual PA
• Baking
• Child-minding
• Pet minding
• Tutoring
• Telemarketing
