Supporting parents in your organisation

Looking for ways to retain parents and help them thrive?

 

Motherhood often comes when a woman is entering the prime of her career. Her extensive experience, knowledge and skills put her on a clear path to leadership. 

Yet we know that women often feel isolated, overwhelmed, guilty and lacking in confidence after maternity leave. In fact, up to 30% of women leave the workplace after becoming mothers.

Women should not have to choose between having a family and maintaining a successful career. We offer opportunities to reflect, take stock, make choices and plan for their working lives, at any point in their professional or parenting journey.

We also offer organisations ways to explore how to support all parents, whilst tackling entrenched questions of diversity and inclusion.

Only around 30% of women are in full-time work or self-employed three years after childbirth, compared to 90% of new fathers.

We partner with organisations to create effective and nurturing packages of support for parents as they're navigating big changes in their life and career. Book in a free chat to discuss your needs.
