Details of maternity coaching & pregnancy workshops available to your company and recommended reading.

Workshops

The Maternity Coaching Programme starts during your pregnancy, continues through your maternity leave, and ends when you are comfortably settled back to work. You will then be given the option to continue your support in the Working Parents Programme. Group workshops cover all the informational and emotional support you will need to ensure you experience a happy and healthy pregnancy. There is also the option of 1 to 1 coaching.

The Paternity Programme offers new fathers-to-be informational meetings, to understand what support is available to themselves and their partners and addresses the essential role of the father during pregnancy.

Both programmes offer a great opportunity to network with employees in the same position as you.

Please contact us if you would like to find out more about our programmes.
