What is some advice for new moms going back to work?

Returning to work

Returning to work might bring up a wide range of emotions from excitement to dread and everything in between.

Tips and tricks

  • Find dependable and trustworthy childcare and visit or test out providers before making a decision

  • Talk to your employer about options to work from home and if needed to allow for breaks to pump (if breastfeeding or expressing)

  • Seek support from other working parents and try your best to let go of any guilt

There are many different ways to balance work and family life and your experience may be different than what you expected prenatally.
