“This course provided a great venue to share ideas and fears with other moms that were at a similar stage of their maternity leave. It was a very welcoming group where all questions and concerns were encouraged and addressed in a very non-judgmental way. I have been referring back to some of the materials as my return to work date gets closer and closer. I would recommend for anyone returning back to work – first maternity leave or otherwise! ”
