Hayley Birkin

Hi, I'm Hayley. I work in content and audience engagement at DatingPartners.com, helping dating brands create useful, relatable content for the people who use them.

Day to day, I focus on content strategy, editorial planning and building things that support both audience trust and brand growth across a range of dating niches. I'm particularly interested in how content shapes online communities and helps people feel more confident on digital platforms.

Outside of work, I'm based in Bristol — I love travelling, coffee shops that take themselves too seriously, live music, and trying (mostly failing) to balance career ambition with actually having a life outside of work.

Why this blog

Mums That Work is the space I wish I'd had when I started juggling a career and a family. It's a mix of honest stories, the pros and cons no one talks about over coffee, and the practical hacks that actually get me through a Tuesday.

No empowerment clichés. No "having it all" pep talks. Just real writing for people doing the very real thing.
