1
Employee Onboarding
Once your company has joined the program, your HR department will notify us of an employee planning to take parental leave and a program manager will start the onboarding process.
How It Works
2
Parental Leave Support
The dedicated program manager will then customise each chapter (typically 3 months) based on the unique needs of your employee, recommend the right experts, and book the 1:1 consultations and check-ins.
3
Successful RTW
Our goal is that your employee is physically, mentally and emotionally ready to resume their career so we ensure a smooth transition by continuing our services until they find the right balance between home and work.
Structured, Yet Customisable
Every employee will be paired with a dedicated program manager responsible for orchestrating their onboarding, introduction, regular check-ins, and assessment consultations at every stage of the program.
We offer “continuity of care” post-birth and we know how unique every pregnancy, birth, mother or baby is, so our program is also 100% unique, tailored to each person.
In Person And Remote Options
We have experts in Sydney and Melbourne, Australia. Can’t make it in person? Our experts are equipped to deliver your consultations via video call so you can comfortably partake from the comfort of your home.

Matrescence & Wellbeing At Work
Elise Clement, Matrescence Coach for RTWell
“Matrescence is the holistic understanding of what a woman goes through as she transitions into and through motherhood. The research into the changes a woman experiences after becoming a mother shows us there are far more psychological and emotional changes than we previously understood or supported her with. Changes that are not recognised by her workplace when she returns to work. In other words "she has changed" and when she returns to the workforce this needs to be acknowledged for her to feel engaged, motivated and to support her desire to contribute to the organisation's success.”
