 “I make a point of asking every working mother I meet: ‘How on earth do you manage? What’s your secret?’ It’s like we’re all trying to find the holy grail.”
 TV presenter Myleene Klass, May 16, 2009

Amanda announces a new high speed networking event for ‘mumprenuers’ taking place in June to give support, advice – and a bit of a breather – to working mothers in London! A variation on speed dating, our ‘mumprenuers’ will have the opportunity to ’speed-network’ during the event, so everyone has the opportunity to introduce their businesses to one another. After two minutes a bell is heard and you swap partners, and carry on until everyone in the event has met.

Career women who become mums, notoriously find themselves juggling a million different responsibilities and often become stressed and isolated by the numerous demands on their time. This special networking  event, on 18th June, will be held at Chelsea’s waterside Deep Sea Food Restaurant, famous as the trendy backdrop for Gordon Ramsey’s The F-Word programme.

The event has been organised by celebrity children’s entertainer Amanda Frolich, of Amanda’s Action Kids in West London. “I’ve been entertaining babies and toddlers for years and find, time and time again, that mothers need a way of connecting with each other. That need increases ten-fold when they go back to work and don’t have the time to go to playgroups, NCT groups or coffee mornings – the traditional ways for mums to meet up,” says Amanda, herself a mother of one.

“I want to bring business-women together to find out more about each other’s work, how they can advise each other and make strategic connections and relationships.  Perhaps most importantly, they can find out tips on how to juggle everything. Whether you’re a successful business-woman or you’re starting a kitchen table business, these events will be invaluable.”

The inaugural event will lead on to regular meetings and Amanda intends to set up an online resource centre that members can access. There will be speakers at each meeting, pampering treatments and an image consultant who will share secrets on how looking good will help you win business.

Journalist and mother to a three-year-old, Tessa Evans Hurrell added:  “Going back to work in a male-dominated newspaper office after having a baby was very daunting, particularly juggling childcare, my daughter’s needs and being a good employee. Two years later I left the newspaper to go self-employed but there is a whole range of other plates to spin and so I am constantly looking for advice on how to keep them all spinning at the same time. As Myleene Klass found, the best suggestions always come from other working mums.”
