Naviva Maternity Care offers a groundbreaking solution for mothers: mom contracts that let you work during school hours, ensuring you're there to pick up your kids from the schoolyard. Ideal for balancing career and family.
Inspired by Naviva's family-friendly approach, I spent a day shadowing Elise, a maternity nurse there. Watch the vlog below to see her day in action, including how the mom contract works and its benefits for working moms.
Many maternity nurses work irregular shifts, committing full weeks to new mothers while managing home life independently. Naviva recognizes this challenge for young families and offers school-hour schedules with tailored shorter contracts.
Like any profession, maternity care thrives on strong work-life balance. Traditional roles have deterred mothers with young children, but Naviva listened to employee feedback and innovated accordingly.
Naviva's mom contracts enable maternity nurses to work about 6 hours daily, seamlessly fitting around young families. This retains talent, benefiting both nurses and the organization.
Naviva's neighborhood-focused model keeps you working locally, so with a mom contract, you're home when school ends—just like Elise.
Beyond flexible hours, Naviva provides extensive training in cutting-edge practices like Dunstan Baby Language, rotating care, and baby massage—as highlighted in the video. As a mother, these resonated with me; techniques like Dunstan Baby Language would have been invaluable during my own early parenting days.
Maternity nurses empower new parents with these evidence-based insights for optimal starts.
From my time with Elise, Naviva offers rewarding challenges, robust training, and perfect family compatibility via mom contracts. Considering a career move?
