Our Story

RecruitMyMom was started in 2012 by Founder and CEO Phillipa Geard, a passionate South African entrepreneur. Phillipa, a mother of two, was motivated by the talents and abilities of many skilled mothers leaving the workplace due to inflexible work practices. She found a solution to stop the gender and female skill leak by attracting employers who respect that these women take their careers and parenting seriously.  

Today, the community comprises over 250,000+ skilled Moms (and other career-flex workers) and over 5000 future-thinking employers. A team of professional women supports Phillipa.

RecruitMyMom currently services global clients (Africa, Europe, USA, Australia) with our remote workforce and all regions of South Africa, including Gauteng, Limpopo, Mpumalanga, KwaZulu Natal, North West, Free State, Western Cape, Eastern Cape, Northern Cape.
