Mothers in Chelsea use outsourcing to balance career and family
A mother and entrepreneur living in Chelsea, Darya, is utilizing outsourcing to balance her career and family life. Rather than hiring a traditional nanny, she focuses on delegating less desirable domestic tasks to gain more quality time with her three children.
Her current arrangement includes a housekeeper who visits five days a week to handle cooking and cleaning, providing healthy, homemade meals. Additionally, she employs a virtual assistant based in Nigeria for approximately 10 hours of private administrative support per week at a cost of £100. This strategy allows her to focus on her professional ventures, including her property management firm and Chelsea Swim Spa.
