You can’t plan for everything, but if you’re expecting, carefully planning your parental leave will give you, your family, and your team peace of mind.
Getting ready for family leave can be stressful for expecting parents.
There’s a lot to think about, and unexpected things will come up.
That’s why planning for leave is so important.
If you’re an expecting parent, give careful thought to your family leave plan.
Thoroughly planning your leave:
1. Protects against unforeseen issues
You can’t predict every contingency. But the better you plan, the better prepared you, your family, and your colleagues will be to take things in stride, adjust, and keep moving forward.
2. Allows for a smooth handoff
A thoughtful parental leave plan ensures your work will be handed off to the right people — and get done properly.
3. Gives you peace of mind
Perhaps most important, carefully planning your parental leave allows you and your family to enjoy your time off and fully invest in your child.
