The birth of a child changes your life dramatically. Guaranteed. In our work culture, family and work are often seen as separate domains, which leads to a conflict in loyalty for working parents. Private life suddenly becomes much more of a priority than before.
An employer who recognizes this phase and offers policies that respond to it, helps employees to best fulfill their responsibilities as parents and professionals
Our approach starts from the moment employees start looking into expanding their family until their return after maternity leave and well into the years with young children. We implement family-friendly policies, provide pragmatic HR interventions and practical tools for both managers and employees. And that is desperately needed when you look at the numbers.

I think it is important that my team feels good about the balance between home and work. Parents. Inc makes the topic of parenthood a topic of discussion. I see employees following the Parents Inc. program. stand up for themselves more and, for example, also start discussions at home.

I am proud that we at KPN are working on a healthy return after leave for our women. Parents Inc. helps us with (among other things) a valuable workshop for our managers and a program for pregnant women. Parents Inc. provided both solid content and an open conversation so that our managers now understand what they can do to ease the return after leave.

As an Employability Advisor at Hunkemöller, I worked with Lotte and Sanne from Parents Inc. Two top performers! Together we put the topics 'back to work strongly after leave' and 'parenting & working' on the map. I had quite a few ideas of my own and Lotte and Sanne responded fantastically and immediately put them to work. This resulted in an offer that perfectly meets the needs of both employers and employees, resulting in great enthusiasm. I can recommend Parents Inc. to recommend wholeheartedly!
Hunkemoller
Parents Inc. gave a workshop in which they had an honest conversation about the influence of parenthood on work. We discussed the prejudices and facts about parenthood and work and how you can combine the two in a relaxed way. About 25 doctors participated and are all very positive about this workshop! Lotte and Sanne made it possible to talk to each other, there was a lot of recognition of each other's daily struggles at home and at work. They ensured that people could share experiences and tips in an interactive way. Highly recommended!

What a wonderful program you have set up! This should be suggested to every workplace to be allowed to do this! Especially if you don't yet know how to combine your work with parenting or because you find it exciting, because then this really helps you find a better balance and make a good start.

As an organization, set up good off-boarding and re-boarding
Pregnancy and return after leave has an impact on work. As an employer you play a determining role in this. In line with your current business processes, we set up a clear structure from pregnancy until after the leave. We design and implement a suitable off and re-boarding program for (again) expectant parents, so that they feel supported in this turbulent phase of life. This way, employees and managers know exactly where they stand.

A support program for employees who are expecting a child.
With the 'Strong return to work' trajectory, new parents receive support from pregnancy to a year after birth. As a result, they are well prepared for what is to come, they feel supported by a community and they maintain control at home and at work. Participation promotes not only professional growth, but also personal development, and a healthy work-life balance.
