Annetta Quintero, 31 is no average woman. She gave birth to a baby and a high fashion retail store just three months apart from one another. Annetta Quintero, 31, gave birth to baby boy, Gabriel, just three months before opening her flagship Italian fashion shop, S.P.Q.R Roma at Westfield Miranda.
"I have now achieved two milestones in my life in short amount of time; becoming a mother and owning my own fashion store which combines my ancestry and my passions", says Annetta.
In 2001, the government funded the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics Survey. Researchers interviewed 14,000 people from about 7 700 households and found that in the 30-54 year age group, there were 5.5 per cent of couples where the women was either working full or part time while the man was unemployed.
Everything has happened at the just the right time for me and Im going with the flow. My husband is focusing on looking after our son while I manage the shop. At times its tiring. Finishing a full days work in the store and coming home to attend to Gabriel can be challenging, but when I finally get to bed at 2am, I know that Im doing the right thing and its all worth it.
