Be prepared. Having a baby means a huge
upheaval in work and home life.

Handle the professional transition well and it's a great opportunity – badly handled, it's a recipe for resentment and regret. Drakes Maternity/Paternity Packages get it right for organisations and individuals.

Corporate: We spend a huge amount of resources developing our staff, the cost of recruitment and training is significant – so when great people don't come back after maternity leave – it leaves a big gap. We can help you create opportunities for people to work flexibly and to continue after maternity and paternity leave.

Individuals: New mums and dads reassess priorities and often seek flexible hours or a new role. Drakes offer vision, negotiating strategy and back-up support to get you the best deal, even when you're feeling vulnerable.

Couples coaching: How do CEOs/directors achieve the work-life balance best for the family? Our Maternity/Paternity Packages explore your possibilities, and tackle the practical problems once Junior's here.
