The holy grail of finding work to fit alongside home education is to have something you love doing, a product or service you truly believe in, flexible hours and a nice bit of money coming in.

This week we meet Vanessa who has found just this combination in her business and is bringing a bit of St Tropez to our doors.

With Vanessa Tarr: Vanessa is a home-educating mum of three from Kent, running her Tropic Skincare business alongside family life. Since joining Tropic in May 2025, it's become her main income, and she now leads a team across the UK. -Vanessa's Website@tropicbyvanessatarr on InstagramVanessa's Facebook page
