Our three-staged approach supports mothers before, during and after maternity leave
It helps mothers prepare for and understand the transition they have been through in becoming a mother and their new identity. It enables them to visualise their future self and goals for their career, before helping them plan the return to work that’s right for them. Finally, it helps them plan and re-establish their career plan on their return to work.

Programme options
The coaching programme operates on a ‘pay-as-you-go’ basis or you can buy an annual package of hours to draw down from as needed.
Online courses
We offer online courses to suit each stage and needs in the maternity journey:
Preparing for parental leave
This course is designed to support individuals from the moment they announce they will become a parent through to engaging with their role and career after they return to work. Full of support and learning about the major life transition to parenthood as well as practical tips for every step of the journey, this course will ensure your colleagues plan their best parental leave.
Returning from parental leave
If your colleagues are already on parental leave, this course will help them plan their return to work and then re-engage with their role and career after they have returned. It provides space to reflect on the major life transition they have been through, as well as offering practical tips and support to ensure they have the best return to work.
Group coaching support and workshops
1:1 coaching support
For smaller organisations, or those who would like to offer bespoke support to their colleagues, our 1:1 coaching is tailored to each individual we support. Each colleague can choose their preferred choice of coach to work with from our highly experienced team, who will then support them through their transition to and from parental leave. During their 1:1 sessions, the coach will support them in working towards their goals through coaching and a tailored selection of written exercises from our Parental Leave Coaching Toolkit.

What my clients are saying
“My coaching sessions were an invaluable support as I transitioned back to work. I wanted to focus my sessions on how I phased back into work and I honestly believe I wouldn't have found the transition as manageable without this support. Frances gave me some tools to help the transition, help me work efficiently as I changed to 4 days a week and gave me some key things to think about before I went back to work which I wouldn't have thought about previously. Thank you so much for providing such support."
