Some medieval city women were housewives, who kept house and raised children.
Many were in business with their husbands or other close relatives. These were rather well educated women, who often could perform all the functions needed to run a business. Typically, if the business involved travel, the husband did this and the wife controlled what happened at home.
Many other women worked at jobs of all sorts. Many were cooks or servants. Some were independent bakers. Most city folk did not cook at home in the Middle Ages, so many people, including a lot of women, made livings by prepared foods. Other women were tailors, weavers, jewelers, artists and so on.
Medieval women were often allowed to do all the things medieval men did. There is a link below to a question whose answer goes into this in more detail.
