 Here’s an inspiring success story about a woman who was originally going to open a health food store and then once she had children realized it made more sense for her to open her store on the Internet rather than as a brick and mortar store.

From Learning to juggle the kids and the keyboard:

Not that working from home is all plain sailing, as Martiskin knows.

She has become skilled at juggling a baby in one arm while typing with the other hand.

Passionate about healthy living, Martiskin created a one-stop shop for organic baby products which are “as environmentally friendly as possible”.

“I recognised a need for the products,” she said. “There has been a rise in asthma and eczema and food-related allergies as well as problems caused from residue from household cleaning products.”

While her original plan was to open a health store with an on-site nutrition practice, the arrival of the children meant the business plan evolved to be mostly online.

After plenty of research with the help of her husband, taste-testing and product trialling, the website, http://www.vitalbeing.com.au, is now stocked with a wide range of certified organic and Australian-made products.
