“My wife went back to work 10 months after giving birth, and so I began my three months in the hot seat as my son’s full-time carer. And what a three months they were! I got to spend loads of quality time with my son, and watch him transform from a relatively stationary, relaxed bub into an energetic, adventurous, and infinitely curious toddler. Not only did my time on parental leave provide many great experiences and memories, it also delivered an important dose of reality – I learnt pretty quickly that being a full-time carer is no mean feat!”

“I’ve had two great periods of extended parental leave with our children. On both occasions it was time well spent to build connection, memories and allow my wife the time to further develop her career.  This time together was such a critical time in helping learn to parent and build our family. From music time to swimming lessons, we had a packed calendar and whilst some days were long the weeks flew by and have treasured the memories of this special time.”
