Want your chores and jobs to feel manageable through maternity leave and your return to work?
One of the biggest concerns I hear from new mothers is how they will find time to do all they need to alongside looking after their new baby, whether it's caring for older children, jobs or chores.
How you or your family managed things before your new arrival might not work in the future.
This short course gives you the space to look at how you would like to manage things during maternity leave and after your return to work using my four-step plan.
And because I'm a working parent, and have been through maternity leave, I know how hard it is to find the time to do even the simplest of tasks. The bite size lessons and downloadable worksheet is designed to make it easy to complete around even the busiest work and family life.

FAQs
-
Will I have time to do this, I've just had a baby.
This course is designed so you can dip in and out of it, so even if you have 10 minutes here and there to grab a cup of tea and complete a lesson you will benefit from it. It is structured in bite-sized lessons to fit in with busy work and family lives. Mums who have been through my maternity coaching programme have looked at how they manage things at home so that they have more time to do things they love. So it should also help you find the time for yourself in your busy week.
-
Having a baby is an expensive time, can I afford to spend money on myself?
