Maternity Coaching and More

Organisations:
Struggling to retain your female
talent?

With more women in senior roles than ever before, maternity can have a serious impact on your organisation. A third of women don’t return to work after maternity leave – and those who do can find it difficult to manage the challenges of their dual role.

• Are you losing your key women after maternity leave?
• Are you spending huge sums on replacement and training?
• Are you losing expertise, contacts and client relationships?
• Are your returners underperforming through stress or lack of confidence?
• Would you like to improve staff retention, productivity and morale?
• Do you want to build a brand that attracts the best talent?

Women:
Wondering how you’ll manage a baby and a career?

If you feel daunted at the thought of the changes ahead, don’t worry – you’re not alone. There are many personal and professional factors to consider, but good planning and support will help you make your decisions and feel confident in them.

• How do you feel about returning to work?
• Are you apprehensive about the challenges of having a baby?
• Are you worried it will affect your career prospects?
• Do you want to explore flexible working or a change of role?
• Will you feel out of the loop while you’re on leave?
• How will you manage the logistics of job and childcare?

Women who have specialist maternity coaching during the transition from pregnancy to maternity leave and the return to work are more likely to rejoin their organisation and to handle the challenges well.

I’m Vanessa Kingsmill – a trained coach specialising in maternity coaching. I’m also a qualified lawyer, HR professional and mother of three.

My individually-tailored coaching programmes help women prepare for the radical changes ahead, and help organisations to retain and motivate their valuable staff.

And my friendly, practical approach is really valued by the women I work with.
