Oh, I wish our office had its own Grandma!
Making coffee, collecting mugs from tables, and putting dishes in the dishwasher. I wouldn’t be surprised if at your office these tasks are taken care of by “someone else”, meaning at first “no one” and then the most self-sacrificing person – either on their own time or during work hours when they should be doing the work they were hired for.
That’s when you find yourself sighing, wishing for an Office Grandma. But luckily we have one – Toimistomummola brings energetic retirees to rescue the daily office routine!

Why did we establish the Toimistomummola?
We want to create jobs and bring more warmth and presence to workplaces. Let us tell you why it is so important to us!
Work itself brings meaning and purpose – and the indulgence, fun, and joy of pampering loved ones made possible by this little extra income doesn’t diminish it in the slightest! The opportunity to work flexibly and just the right amount even in retirement is something that should definitely be more widely available. We decided to start from here!
Läsnäolo, presence, means being present in the moment, with the people around you. It arises from encounters, interest, joy, and empathy. In contrast to remote work, there’s a need for human interaction. Retirees long to belong to a community, and employees need good reasons to come to the office to meet people. We believe it was worth combining these two things!
And finally, we want to incorporate work, “läsnäolo” and the warmth of grandma’s house into our business offering to you. Unhurried, intergenerational encounters bring kindness and thoughtfulness to everyday life, while quietly conveying the knowledge and trust that things have a way of working out. Even though work life sometimes feels hectic and crazy, Grandma and Grandpa can tell us that things have always found their way. Their experience can have a calming effect on us!
There’s hustle and bustle at Mummola
We take care of our grandmas and grandpas. In addition to belonging to their office community, the Grannies are part of our very own Mummola, which regularly brings the granny gang together – both the Office Grannies, substitute grannies, and those who are still waiting to find the right office.
Although the work of an Office Grandma is already pleasantly enjoyable in itself, life should be more than just work. That’s why we sometimes brew coffee together, go out into nature or for lunch, attend dance classes or art exhibitions, learn flower arranging or Italian cooking together – whatever we come up with!
If your company’s premises or services are available for Mummola meetings, please let us know – we’d love to come visit!
Questions and answers
Grannies can do a variety of tasks – we always review the tasks specifically for each customer, so feel free to suggest anything! Would you like to have someone to take care of the coffee station, the dishwasher (or more precisely, the sink full of mugs), the empty drink cabinet, or the fridge bursting with last month’s lunches? Everyday happiness can also be increased with breakfast, cinnamon buns, or a fresh bouquet of flowers – and simply by having a familiar, warm person in the office to chat with!
Let’s consider together which tasks would bring joy to your office’s daily life! What matters most to us are familiar, weekly routines. We don’t make grannies do overly physical work. A bit of tidying and restocking the drink cabinet is fine, but let’s stick to office work!
We are also sharp at solving challenges. Morning porridge cooks conveniently on a portable stove, and our Granny Coordinator handles the necessary orders from our office. Voilà!
Being a Granny is above all a state of mind! Although the service is called “Office Granny”, we have Grandpas and Granddads just as we have Grannies and Grandmas! Depending on your working language, we can send you a Workplace Granny, Office Granddad, Toimistomummo, Toimistovaari, Kontorsmormor of Kontorsfarfar!
We interview the Grannies and select the most suitable candidates for you. You get to have a say in the selection! We always strive to find a granny as close to your location as possible to make the commute to the office convenient. Sometimes there are special requirements for grannies, such as English language skills in international companies. It is our job to find the perfect match!
We at Toimistomummola are responsible for the Granny! Each Granny has her own Granny Coordinator who reviews the tasks and provides orientation for the role. Both grannies and clients can always call the Granny Coordinator!
If you wish to end the relationship with the Granny (sniff!), our notice period is three months. This gives us enough time to find a new office for the granny!
No worries, the absence will be compensated on another day or credited to the invoice.
Currently, we have clients in Helsinki and Turku (Finland), but we are happy to expand to new cities. Just send us a message!
Mummola (“Grandma’s place”) is the community of Office Grannies! We select the most suitable applicants for Mummola based on applications and interviews. Through Mummola, we offer new job opportunities, provide training for the role, and organize enjoyable activities for the whole group!
