The Hands On Housewife  

What’s the one thing you love most about being a mum? If it’s getting creative with the kids, whether it’s drawing, scrap booking, cooking or even completing school projects, then you may be best fitted to a career that allows you to channel this creative energy. Consider:

Graphic Design - if you love creating scrap books, photo albums and other visual outlets, then you will thrive in graphic design which involves using artistry and technical skills to visually communicate marketing ideas. Graphic designers often work from home and will work with marketing agencies and publishing companies to create banners, websites, display ads, magazine images and more. There are graphic design courses available at the certificate and diploma level.

Marketing – marketing involves thinking outside the box and creating campaigns and advertisements that will go the distance. For creative minded individuals, there are career opportunities where your visions will come to life. Marketing professionals use a range of product, pricing, promotion and distribution strategies to understand the market and buyer behaviour in order to create a successful campaign. A great starting point for those interested in this type of career is the Certificate IV of Marketing but there are short courses and advanced diplomas also available.

Beauty Therapy – if you love to use your creative energy in a more hands on approach, then why not consider a course in beauty? Beauty therapy includes certificates in retail makeup, skincare, nail technology and salon management. If you have an eye for beauty and a passion for creative flair, then this could be the perfect career path to take.

 The Health Conscious Home Maker

Are you constantly looking for clean meal ideas and healthy activities for you and your children to do together? If you are a self confessed health nut and would like to take this passion further, then you will certainly benefit from a career in health and wellness. Our top picks for your personality include:

Personal Training and Fitness: become a personal trainer in as little as 12 weeks with the amazing Certificate III and IV in Fitness. If you love exercising and would like to help others find their inner fitness passion, then you may benefit from a career in fitness and personal training.

Nutritional Medicine - work in the field of Natural Medicine. You can even continue your study with an Advanced Diploma of Natural Medicine and open your own wellness clinic.

The Organised Family Mumager 

Do you have a routine that other mums envy? Do you pride yourself on having the daily activities, meals and housework down to an art form? If you love the idea of a label overloaded pantry, a play room alphabetized by toy and a colour coded weekly activity chart, then you will thrive in an industry when structure, organisation and the ability to multi task are required. These may include:

Event Management - this is a fun career path to consider if you love organisation. Be part of a team to plan events, from parties to conferences and work with clients to come up with the right event of their goals. Event management can include planning catering, themes and decor, technology, staging and lighting, audiovisual equipment, photography, media exposure, safety and security, graphics and multimedia materials, traffic and parking, entertainers and equipment hire – all within budget constraints! Sounds like the perfect mission for any successful family manager!

Travel and Tourism – if you love to plan, then you may appreciate a career in travel and tourism where you are in charge of creating the dream holiday for others. Choose activities, transportation and accommodation and design the perfect trip based on your client’s requests. A Diploma of Travel and Tourism is a great place to start.

The All Natural Domestic Goddess

There are so many ways to live a more natural life and if you enjoy using natural approaches to cleaning, medicating and daily living, then you will benefit from a holistic career choice. There are plenty of study options that allow you to channel your passion for pure living including:

Massage therapy - do you believe in the power of touch? A Certificate IV in Massage Therapy can help you release your inner healing and help those suffering from various aches, pains and tension.

Natural Therapy -courses in natural therapy include nutrition, herbal medicine, homeopathy and naturopathy and put you on the pathway to cleaner living and wellness. You can use the education and training gained through the various certificate and diploma programs to start your own wellness center and help others find the path to natural living.
