I have a pregnant mom (i watch her 1yr old dd) that asked me what I offer for Maternity Leave.
I was so confused.
She went on to say she didn't see it mentioned in my handbook.
I said "because I don't plan on having any more kids"
i really wasn't getting it.
She said - No, I mean for dd what kind of maternity leave do you offer for her?
I looked at her so puzzled.
She said "when I'm on maternity leave I will be off work for 3 months - do you offer time off that I don't have to pay for care?"
I must have looked like an idiot because until she spelled it out I was so clueless..LOL
I told her "no, you have to pay for the spot just as if you were on vacation. But feel free to bring her during that time. it will make for great bonding for you and the new baby !!"
Do you guys offer free time off for maternity???
