Diane was wonderful to work with!
My situation was a little complex in that I was navigating maternity leave at a huge worldwide corporation not located in California (where I was). It was a maze of paperwork, vague corporate handouts and I was lost with nobody that I could really talk to. I knew I needed some outside help that could navigate the whole situation. I wish I found her before spending hours trying to research everything on my own, it would have saved me SO much time! Diane was able to review the company paperwork, employee handbook and more documentation to give me a very clear picture of what I was owed and what I should expect. Even though I went through all of my own company paperwork and documentation with a fine tooth comb, Dlane found several things I missed and pointed out a few important things that, if I hadn't had her guidance I would have missed out on! Also, she is helping me navigate my return to work strategy so that I can take as long a leave as possible. On top of that, I have a clear understanding of all of the California leave laws and my rights as well! She is worth her weight in gold and any woman in California going on maternity leave should consult with her! The ROI from consulting with her is completely worth it! Thank you Diane! You were a GOD send!
IÂ have already learned SO MUCH!
My maternity leave with my first was an absolute disaster that left me in tears multiple times and without payment for FOUR months because my HR didn't help me AT ALL. My company is based in another state and therefore they didn't realize/didn't tell me that CA has different laws and protections. I left months on the table and my pay was so delayed (and originally declined) because I didn't file appropriately on time. I was completely unsupported and knew nothing and I vowed to not let that happen again. I am in sales and a lot of my pay is commission based so it's a delicate balance trying to navigate what I should take vs what I am entitled to but I am at least so grateful that I can get what I need, budget accordingly and make informed decisions this time around! I have already recommended California Maternity Leave Consulting to multiple friends and family members and will continue to do so anytime people bring up pregnancy, maternity leave etc!!
I so clear and so helpful
I'm still going through the course, but it has been so clear and so helpful so far. I just attended the live Q&A last night, and I appreciated Diane's enthusiasm and the way she read through every question even all the ones that came up in the chat (including my own). It really reenforced all the information I'm learning in the modules and also helpful in locating resources that I will need in the future. All the examples in the modules are also super helpful!
This course has been a Godsend!
I'm a first time mom trying to navigate maternity leave with little direction from my employer and EDD. This course has been a Godsend! I feel way more empowered and armed with facts to approach my employer. Diane does a great job of breaking down the material in short easy way to digest without being overwhelmed. This course was definitely worth it and encourage all pregnant women (and other inquiring minds) to take it. I'm definitely glad I did!
