Returning to work after parental leave can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to. I help organisations support returning parents with coaching that builds confidence, resilience, and motivation. To get started, download The Maternity Return Checklist for line managers to reintegrate employees with clarity and confidence.

Before becoming a parent myself, my career included HR, recruitment and coaching managers and senior leaders in their professional and personal development.

My own experience of managing others and then returning to work myself after having my daughter, highlighted a need for more robust support through this transition. Now, I partner with organisations as a specialist coach to support their returning parents.

I provide a safe, confidential space to reflect, regain self-belief, and develop practical strategies for thriving in work and life. Mental health and wellbeing are always central to my approach, giving clients tools they can use in fast-paced, demanding environments.

I work 1:1 with returning parents to:

· Create a personalised re-entry plan covering work-life balance, professional goals, and more

· Build confidence in managing the dual roles of parent and professional

· Foster open communication with managers

· Acknowledge the emotions that come with big transitions

· Provide accountability and coaching throughout the entire period

The real impact of coaching comes alive in the stories of the people and organisations I work with. You will find case studies and conversations, on my website that show how parental coaching helps individuals feel more confident in their return to work, and how businesses create lasting cultural change when they invest in their people.

Organisations investing in parental return to work coaching see higher retention, stronger engagement, and improved career progression for returning parents. It also helps you stand out as a genuinely family-friendly workplace, attracting top talent and creating a culture where people feel valued and supported.

If you want to make every parental return a success, for your employees and your organisation, let’s talk.
