Good to know

Workplace seminar FAQs.

Who are the seminars for?

Expecting, new and returning parents in your workforce, plus their partners and co-parents. They're booked by HR and People teams, wellbeing managers, and parent or women's employee resource groups (ERGs).

Are they in-person or online?

Both. Sessions can run in-person in Sydney, the Central Coast and across NSW, or online via Zoom for teams anywhere in Australia.

Do you use cry-it-out methods?

Never. All guidance is evidence-based and attachment-honouring, working with your babies' biology rather than overriding it.

How is it priced?

Group seminars are a simple fixed fee (easy to raise a PO against). Ongoing wellbeing packages are quoted annually. We'll confirm the right fit on your discovery call.
