In a fast-paced world, women are taking on more roles than ever before. Being a “mom” is no longer limited to caring for the family—it also means being a leader, a planner, a negotiator, and a source of inspiration.
At Bluebik, our Wonder Moms represent modern women who blend gentleness with strength-professionals who excel at their jobs while caring for their little ones with all their hearts.
This Mother’s Day 2025, we invite you to explore heartfelt stories from Bluebik’s incredible moms on how life changed after their little ones arrived, how they adapted to their new roles as working moms, and the messages they want to pass on to their children.
Ready? Let’s dive into the real, raw, and inspiring stories of Bluebik’s Wonder Moms.
From HR Director to ‘Full-Time Mom’ at Heart — Equipped with Empathy, Patience, Calmness, and a Positive Mindset
– Patcharabhorn, HR Director, Bluebik Group
Our first question was: How has having a child changed your life, and what have you learned from your little one that you can apply to your daily life or work? Patcharabhorn shared with cheerful enthusiasm: “From the moment I found out I was pregnant; life was never the same again. I had to be selective about what I ate because nothing stayed where it should be, couldn’t sleep well, and dealt with back pain. But strangely enough… I could still smile every day because there was ‘another heartbeat’ growing inside me.
When I saw my baby on the ultrasound for the first time, I smiled through tears (honestly, the tears were partly from lying on my back for so long and being so anxious, but I was genuinely overjoyed too).
Having a child taught me about ‘unconditional love’ in a way I’d never experienced before. It showed me that leadership isn’t just about being capable, it’s about listening with understanding, maintaining patience and composure, even on days when you’ve only had three hours of sleep from night feedings. Simply put, having a child… boosted my soft skills without me even realizing it,” Patcharabhorn concluded with endearing charm.
When we asked about balancing work between being a mother and leading the Human Resources team at Bluebik, “I have to say that at Bluebik, I’ve never felt like I had to choose between ‘the job I love’ and ‘the child I love even more.’ This place allows me to be both ‘my child’s mom’ and ‘the team’s mom’ at the same time.
There was one day when my child was sick, and I had to rush to the hospital early in the morning. I hurriedly informed my supervisor – P’Boat and team, feeling slightly guilty about taking emergency leave. But what I received in return was… ‘Go take care of your child first, we’ll handle things here together.’ I’m telling you; I teared up at that moment… not sure if it was from being touched or from lack of sleep,” Patcharabhorn added with her characteristic humor, closing her response with genuine appreciation.
Given her consistently positive and cheerful demeanor as a mother, we wanted to know what Patcharabhorn would say to new mothers or those worried about the challenges of balancing motherhood with work: “I want to give them a tight hug and tell them: ‘You’re doing amazingly well, mom.'” “No one starts this role as a professional. Every mother learns on the job. Some days are good; some days are confusing… but every day is filled with emotions you’ve never encountered before.
If there’s a day when you’re exhausted, want to cry, or wonder ‘Can I really handle this?’—please know that… you’re not alone, and your child will only remember that mom was the best, even if you put their diaper on backwards sometimes.” Patcharabhorn continues to end on a sweet note, spreading positive energy as always.
What I’d want to tell my child if they could see this article: I want to say… Mama might not cook the most delicious food, might sing lullabies off-key sometimes, or accidentally fall asleep before you do on some nights. But I’ll always try to be your ‘safe place’—somewhere you can return to and feel most at peace. I’ll always listen to you, even on days when you’re babbling incomprehensibly, but I still nod along understandingly (though I’m honestly a bit confused). I love you so much and will always be right here, no matter how tired, sleepy, or overwhelmed I become from all the crying.
No Need to Be the Perfect Mom—Just One Who’s Proud of Herself and Knows Her Worth
– Kasemsri, Project Manager, Innoviz Solutions
“Having a child makes every day more meaningful,” Kasemsri describes starting her role as a mother when her little one entered her life, before explaining further: “Because it’s not just about raising a child, but about spending time together, understanding each other, and growing together. It made me realize that no one is perfect, but we can open our hearts, learn, and forgive each other.
These lessons can be applied to work, especially as a team leader. It’s not just about leading the team to reach goals, but understanding that everyone is different. We need to keep an open mind, learn together, and grow together.”
Kasemsri continues to share how working at Bluebik allows her to be a full-time mother without abandoning the job she loves: “Working at Bluebik is the perfect balance in life. What my colleagues offer isn’t just working together, but understanding, with flexibility, trust, and an atmosphere of constant mutual support. It makes me feel that Bluebik isn’t just a workplace, but a space that makes me feel valued, both as a woman who loves her work and as a ‘mother’ who can fulfill life’s most important role to the fullest.”
Additionally, Kasemsri shared thoughtful advice for many mothers who worry about not performing well enough in each role: “Take your time finding your own balance. Allow yourself to be tired, to feel discouraged. Life needs to be flexible, and you don’t need to pressure yourself to be a perfect mother. Just be the kind of mother you’re proud of and see your own worth in both your role as a mother and in your working life. It might not be the most perfect, but let it be the happiest in your own way—that’s enough.”
What I’d want to tell my child if they could see this article: You are mommy’s heart and soul, and such an essential source of strength for me. I want you to know that no matter what happens, I’ll be a mother you can trust, believe in, and be confident that I love you the most. We’ll grow up together gradually, learning from each other, letting you develop in the way you want to. I’ll always be by your side and support you.
Work from Anywhere, Love from Everywhere: How Flexibility Helped This Modern Mom Find Her Balance
– Sasalak, Assistant Legal Manager, Bluebik Group
Sasalak opens with her appreciation for working at Bluebik, which allows her to balance time for everything: “I’m grateful for Bluebik’s Work from Anywhere policy that gives us flexibility in our work and enables us to manage our time effectively for both work and childcare. I also want to thank my team for understanding the role of motherhood, whether it’s dealing with a sick child or handling childcare emergencies. I’m very fortunate that the team is ready to help and share the workload when I need to take care of my child.”
For Sasalak, being a mother means having to prioritize and plan every step carefully: “Having a child made me realize that life no longer revolves around myself, but there’s another life I need to care for. This made me reprioritize things—giving more importance to family time, planning for my child’s future, and not forgetting to manage time efficiently for both my role as a mother and as an employee.”
Sasalak also shared that what she’s learned from her child and applied in her life is primarily multitasking and efficiency: “Because being able to care for my child while working simultaneously has given me skills in multitasking and increased efficiency.”
“Being a mother while working isn’t easy. Don’t pressure yourself to do everything perfectly in every role. Allow yourself to make mistakes sometimes—it’s okay not to be perfect.” Sasalak concluded with advice for many mothers facing the challenges of being working moms.
What I’d want to tell my child if they could see this article: Thank you for coming into my life, for helping me learn and grow in many ways, and I will always support every path you take.
It Takes a Team: How a Supportive Workplace Helped This Mom Thrive in Every Role
– Kwanjira, Senior HR Operations Analyst, Bluebik Group
“After having a child, we as mothers found that life changed dramatically. Raising a child requires tremendous patience—when the child was still small, we had sleepless nights waking up to feed and pump milk, dealing with the child’s emotions, solving various problems, and waiting for the child to grow. This patience is an important virtue that helps us face life’s obstacles with calmness and mindfulness.” Kwanjira shared with us when we asked how having a child changed her life.
Kwanjira continued to explain that what she learned from her child and applied to daily life is appreciating and finding joy in small things: “My child taught me to see the value in life’s little things and to learn to be happy with simple things around us—like smiles and laughter. Just these alone can make life simply happy.”
“As a Working Mom at Bluebik, I have to say I’m very fortunate and love it here because this place offers hybrid work that aligns with modern work styles and lifestyles. As a mother, I can manage my work and family responsibilities more effectively. I get to spend various moments with my child, having dinner together, playing games, or doing other activities. These are moments I want to be present for in all of his memories, while still being able to work at something I love with complete dedication and efficiency.
I’m also impressed by my teammates. When my child is sick, I need to care for his illness, which can make me tired and may affect my work responsibilities for that day. The team helps by sharing my workload or allowing me to work from home so I can closely care for my sick child.”
Hearing this, being a Working Mom is truly not easy, and Kwanjira has something to say to mothers who worry about the difficulty of balancing motherhood with work: “I want to say don’t be afraid or anxious.
The most important thing is finding the right balance for yourself, such as allocating time for work and childcare, and understanding the roles and responsibilities in each aspect of both work life and motherhood.
Being both a mother and a working person simultaneously requires tremendous energy, patience, sacrifice, and time. If you feel you can’t do everything by yourself, you might ask for help from those around you, such as family members or colleagues.”
What I’d want to tell my child if they could see this article: You are the best gift for mommy. The love I have for you is unconditional love that nothing can obstruct between us, and it will never end. The love and care I have for you will never fade. I love you so much.
When Life Changes Spark Growth—in Her Family and Her Career
– Paweena, Business Consultant, Manager, Bluebik Vulcan
“Because life changes started from pregnancy, unexpected morning sickness that required frequent emergency sick leave in the early stages. But the senior team members didn’t see it as a problem; instead, they became advisors, offered encouragement, and warmly shared their child-rearing experiences.” Paweena began sharing her experience as a mother at Bluebik.
“Having a child is like a significant life transformation—a new experience that we can’t thoroughly plan ahead for, but must continuously learn and adapt to according to the different developmental stages of our child, while being ready to handle unexpected situations. It’s not unlike work, where we encounter clients from various organizations and diverse formats, requiring us to truly understand their needs, present targeted solutions, listen to feedback, and adjust our work to suit each case’s context.
Just like motherhood, work requires constant learning, experimentation, and application of new technologies. The important thing is having the courage to face the unknown and being ready to grow with it, while not forgetting careful planning to ensure work progresses smoothly.”
Paweena shared reflections of being a professional Working Mom in Bluebik style, balancing both family and work roles perfectly: “When I knew the timeframe for maternity leave, I planned work ahead clearly so the team could continue operations smoothly. When I returned to work, the hybrid work system helped reduce commute time and allowed me to spend more time with my child during essential moments.
Prioritizing work tasks became an essential skill alongside motherhood, managing time for childcare, work, and having colleagues who understand and are ready to support us when unexpected emergencies arise.
All of this makes me feel that Bluebik isn’t just a workplace, but like a family that understands and collaborates to keep work moving forward while everyone grows together.”
One question we wanted to know about was balancing time between work and motherhood. Paweena explained: “Balancing motherhood with work doesn’t mean everything has to be split 50:50 all the time.
Especially when children are young, because for them, ‘we’ are their entire world—their anchor, warmth, and safety every day. During that stage, children need us more than at any other time in their lives, and it’s an important period that passes quickly.
When they grow up, their world begins to expand—new things fill their lives, whether friends, teachers, school, or activities they’re interested in. On that day, we might regain some personal space and be able to focus more on work. But at the same time, we must not forget that our team and work must continue, and we remain essential to the work system we’re part of.
Therefore, flexible time management combined with precise planning, knowledge sharing with the team, and advanced preparation for upcoming work is essential to avoid impacting timelines and prevent work processes from stalling or being bottlenecked by us alone.”
For Paweena, good balance during this time might not be equal time distribution, but understanding each role and communicating openly with the team, while creating work systems that help both “mother” and “teammate” grow together steadily.
What I’d want to tell my child if they could see this article: Mommy might not have been a mother who knew everything from day one, but one thing is sure—I will learn alongside you, grow together, and always be here for every step of your journey, through joy and sorrow. I might not be perfect, but I will be your anchor with a heart that tries its best every day.
