Purpose

Supporting Your People
at Every Stage

Employees

All employees, across all family structures and life stages, benefit from targeted coaching support. From expecting parents to carers of older children or elders, coaching helps employees build sustainable, satisfying career pathways.

Managers

Leaders play a crucial role in supporting family-inclusive cultures. Coaching empowers managers to confidently support parental leavers, uphold flexible work conversations, and lead with empathy and clarity.

Virtual Work + Family Coaching Your People Can Access Anywhere

Parents At Work coaching is delivered virtually, giving employees complete flexibility to access support at a time and place that suits them. Virtual delivery means coaching can happen when it matters most.

Whether they are navigating newborn routines, daycare drop-offs, school schedules, remote work or travel demands, virtual coaching ensures they never miss out on the guidance they need.

Parental Leave Transition Coaching

Supporting parents and carers through every stage of leave.

The Parental Leave Transition Program combines expert coaching, group forums, personalised support nudges and easy access to resources through the ParentKIT app to keep parents engaged and well-informed and help organisations retain talent and boost wellbeing.

The program provides tailored, confidential coaching for employees before, during and after parental leave. It supports all parents across all leave types to feel prepared, confident and connected.

Executive Work Life Transition Coaching

Specialised coaching for leaders managing complex work + family needs.

Designed for senior leaders and high-potential talent, this service helps individuals create sustainable work-life strategies that support long-term performance and personal wellbeing.

Work Life Wellbeing Coaching

Helping employees at any career or family stage feel aligned and supported.

This service offers confidential 1:1 virtual coaching to explore work-life balance, career planning, wellbeing, flexible work arrangements, and navigating new or challenging family stages. 

Employees gain a dedicated space to reflect, reset and plan for a thriving future.

Group Coaching & Workshops

Creating stronger, more supportive workplace cultures.

Group coaching sessions offer teams, managers and parents collective learning opportunities across topics such as:

  • Preparing for parental leave
  • Returning to work
  • Flexible work and job design
  • Wellbeing and mental health
  • Work-life alignment
  • Strengths and resilience development

These forums help normalise the challenges of balancing work and family, while building inclusion and capability across the organisation.

Our Coaching Approach

Our coaches draw on leadership development, counselling, wellbeing science and strengths-based methodologies. Each session is personal, adaptable and grounded in an employee’s lived reality.

The framework supports employees to explore:

  • The Current Reality: work, family and wellbeing today
  • Understanding Needs: what matters right now
  • Vision & Values: where they aspire to be
  • Overcoming Challenges: navigating barriers like guilt, childcare, confidence or lack of support
  • Maximising Strengths & Creating Sustainability
