Oh, I wouldn't in the least be surprised at Mrs Merrick making sure she stopped at just the one! - it seems to fit with the rest of her character. And on the paid job thing, I think given the time when the first books in the sequence were written, she definitely wouldn't have had a paid job (though I can see her having been super-efficient at something or other during the War, when she had to).
