Pregnancy, parental leave and early parenthood influence wellbeing, engagement, retention, leadership continuity and long-term performance.
Organizations increasingly recognize that supporting employees during these periods is not simply a wellbeing initiative — it is a talent and sustainability strategy.
Together with lactation consultant Valentina Velandia, I offer psychologically informed programs that help organizations better support employees before, during and after parental leave.
Our work combines: psychology, family systems perspectives, perinatal expertise, lactation and postpartum support, and organizational understanding.
Our programs are tailored to the organization's size, culture and needs. We offer four core formats.
Topics: Preparing for parenthood · Mental load and invisible labour · Postpartum realities · Returning to work · Fathers and co-parents · Building sustainable support systems
Return-to-work conversations · Parental leave transitions · Psychologically informed leadership · Supporting sustainable performance · Handling sensitive situations
Confidential support for employees navigating: Emotional adjustment · Return-to-work concerns · Family transitions · Postpartum challenges
Parenthood journey mapping · Return-to-work frameworks · Parent support strategies · Referral pathways · Workplace wellbeing initiatives
