Before becoming a parent and a coach, I spent my career in Human Resources. Although I supported many women returning from maternity leave and some navigating flexible working, I was shocked by the realities of going back to work with a small child when I did it myself.

There is a huge amount of support for women during pregnancy and maternity leave (and rightly so!) but there is very little beyond this and few people talk about the challenges of becoming a working parent.

I want to combine my HR expertise with my coaching skills to support individuals to understand their identity as a working parent, what they need to function in the world of paid work and how to ask for what they need.
