Dream Job for Local Woman

A Llangennech woman has landed her dream job thanks to the support from Genesis Sir Gâr Project 2.

There are high hopes for mother of three Karen Deacon as she kicks off her new business, Maud’s Baby Show.

The Genesis Project Sir Gâr 2 helped Karen find child care which enabled her to actively attend courses and meetings to set up her own business. In addition to childcare support, Genesis gave Karen personal support, guidance and signposting.

Karen said:

“The support from Genesis was phenomenal; by having childcare support I was able to develop my business plans and undertake necessary research.

“I knew that my children were well looked after so I was able to concentrate fully on my goal.

“When you’re a parent it can be very difficult at times to get child care to concentrate on what you want to do, but thanks to Genesis I have been able to build my own business and make a difference for my family.”

Karen recently held a successful baby show at Carmarthen Showground where parents from all over Wales attended the event as well as over forty organisations exhibiting.

At Maud’s Baby Show you can get information on pregnancy, birth, babies and much more. Karen will be taking her show to Cardiff on October 10 and 11.
