What Clients Say

At ParentWorks, we provide coaching for working parents, carers, and the leaders who support them. Our coaching helps individuals build confidence, find balance, and feel supported in both their professional and family lives. These stories show the real impact coaching can have on wellbeing, inclusion, retention, and leadership at work.

“

"It gave me space to pause, reflect, and gain perspective during an incredibly busy time."

"Coaching with Rebecca was invaluable in helping me navigate returning to work after maternity leave while balancing family life and preparing for professional exams. Rebecca's supportive, positive, and nurturing approach really helped me feel calmer and more balanced, and I finished the coaching series feeling much better equipped to manage everything at home and at work."

"It gave me exactly what I needed - support, structure, and perspective."

"I was returning to work after parental leave and worried about how I'd manage it all. Coaching helped me prepare practically and emotionally. It gave me a sounding board and reminded me I didn't have to do it all alone. I now feel so much more settled, like I've got my feet under me again."

"I feel more resilient and calm and it shows up in how I lead and parent."

"Before coaching, I felt like I was holding everything together, but only just. I've since learned how to slow down, manage the pressure, and reconnect with what matters. It's helped me not only at home, but at work too - I'm a more present leader and colleague because I'm no longer running on empty."

“

"Coaching helped me build confidence and balance at work and home."

"I was overwhelmed and stuck in a difficult work situation, and it was spilling over into family life. Coaching helped me pause, gain perspective, and take small steps that made a big difference. I feel clearer and more in control, and the people around me have noticed it too - one friend said, 'You're so much more yourself again.'"

Working parent in Professional Services
“

"I'm more confident and aligned and it's having a ripple effect."

"Through coaching, I've started to notice what I need and communicate that clearly - at home and at work. It's helped me stop second-guessing myself and feel more grounded in the decisions I make every day as a parent and a professional."

Working parent and team manager
“

"I learned how to trust myself again."

"Coaching gave me the space to reflect and reconnect with my values. It helped me manage the day-to-day juggle and make decisions more easily. I've started setting clearer boundaries and I've noticed how much calmer and more focused I feel. My team has noticed the change too - I'm showing up with more clarity and confidence."
