Kind Words from our Successful Mums

100% of the mums we work with would recommend us. We are so flattered that we receive so many testimonials and kind words, and we had to share just some of them with you.

It’s been such an informative morning with many realistic action points to take home. I felt so inspired by all the easy to follow tips and it generally felt great to be in a room full of people in similar situations.

It was great to meet other women in a similar position to me and to bounce ideas off each other. All of the encouragement and words of wisdom have given me food for thought over the past week and I’m looking forward to putting it all into action!

This course has helped me overcome unanswered questions, fears etc! Was amazing to meet other mums like me in the same boat! The help and support from our trainer Georgina has been amazing… all the team are amazingly approachable and help you redo your CV, set up your LinkedIn profile and show you where to job search… it’s the start of the new me!

I found Jane really informative and approachable. I’ve come away more confident and determined, ready to grow my business. Thank you!

Jane Bailey

Taster Session Attendee

I went along to a taster session and really didn’t know what to expect and was almost a little nervous as I’d been on a career break of nearly ten years…

Today made me realise I still have the ambition to give something more than being ‘just mum’. I look forward to finding out more and making progress with securing an ideal role.

Business Start-up Course Graduate

The course helped me get started and turn my ideas into reality. Each session gave me practical advice that was easily explained. If you have an idea then don’t hesitate to get started with Successful Mums!

Great session to inspire and motivate you and make you realise your value to an employer.

Taster Session Attendee

I had a really inspiring morning with Jane at the taster session. Jane is very encouraging, open, and knowledgeable. Being a successful mother herself she understands the challenges faced by parents setting up own businesses around family commitments, and provides some really helpful tips about developing a business idea! I came away feeling energised with some clear actions to help me focus, stop procrastinating and break down the barriers to just getting on with it!

I really enjoyed my Back to Work Course with Jane, I found her passion very inspiring it was great to talk to other mums about their experiences, lots of support with interview techniques, cv writing. I’m now coming up to 6 months in my new role!!

Shabina Ahmed

This session is a great introduction to starting a business. It broke down many aspects to smaller bitesize pieces and made me feel like I can start working on the business straight away, taking baby steps and Jane made me believe that this was okay.

Back to Work and Business Start-up Graduate

Jane is a great mentor and coach! I highly recommend her group sessions, a chance to meet some very talented Mums, working together in a team and supporting each other throughout the course.
It gave me the right opportunity to build my confidence and find my true passion.

Mandy Smith

Business Start-up Course Graduate

4 years on and I’m a million miles away from the person who signed up to the first ever Successful Mums course. Jane and her positive inspiration came into my life when I needed to rediscover my strength, confidence and most of all, myself.

Suzanne McDonald

Very motivational session that makes you realise you have a lot more transferable skills than you thought!

Elaine Cooper

I haven’t worked since having my two children so I’m unsure where to start and I’m lacking confidence – Jane made it all very clear how to go about things. I feel inspired to start my journey and write my CV tomorrow!

I loved Jane’s enthusiastic and positive approach to job searching. Thank you for providing the first steps to getting back to work.

Katrina Jordan Baxter

The course is so helpful especially when it comes to interview techniques as that’s my weakness unfortunately! Also it’s nice we can all share our different ideas in class! Jane is a great teacher and explains everything clearly! If you’re a mum and looking at going back to work then I cannot recommend it enough!

Lisa Giorgi Thomson

Taster Session Attendee

Totally inspired to move forward with my business idea today!
Jane was very good at explaining how we get started and believing we can. Totally recommend this to any mummy who has an idea, just go for it!

Nicky Lands

Jane is an excellent speaker with plenty of ideas on how to gain confidence, find work that suits you etc. I especially loved the part about transferable skills in the workplace. Well worth attending if you are unsure as to which path to take..

I’ve just come home after a fantastic Taster Session with Jane. A friendly relaxed session but one that made me feel so energised and I’ve come away with some great pointers for when I’m ready to start looking for a job. I will certainly wear my ‘crown’ with pride!

The Successful Mums Business Start-Up Taster Session was brilliant! Jane’s session was motivating, inspiring and empowering. I have just started by own small business and Jane sent me away with more focus and awareness of how to move my business forward. I am definitely wearing my crown Jane!
