Online Maternity Coaching Modules or Maternity Coaching Support 1 to 1

Purely practical and simply inspiring career management for mums (and dads) embarking on and returning after maternity (parental) leave.

Plan your departure to optimise your return. Reconnect with your professional identity and return to work in a proactive, professional manner. Understand the nuances of different part time working patterns and create a well balanced flexible working request. Feel empowered to collaborate confidently with your manager for an effective return to work. Enjoy every minute of your maternity leave. Perform at your best back at work.

Executive Coaching

Calm and Clarity through Conversation

Lightbulb Moments for Leaders

Life is more than your career but your career is a big part of your life. Behind every success story are challenges that seemingly blocked the way forward. Within an OptiMums Executive Coaching session you step off the beaten path. Allow yourself to disconnect for a while. Find quiet, calm and the opportunity to talk freely and think broadly. Regain your perspective, better understand your challenge, assess your options and choose your next step. Professional growth and personal progress.

Baby Loss Coaching

Baby Loss Coaching Private, personal, comfort In person and / or virtual support

Baby loss is a pain like no other. The physical wounds may heal but often the emotional pain is buried deep inside and unaddressed.

For some the journey into parenting is a dark valley. Fertility challenges, miscarriage, post-abortion trauma, infant death are all sources of baby loss grief for parents. Time off work is helpful for the body to heal but the heart needs more. Often people don’t know what to say. Sometimes people inadvertently hurt us when we are already hurting. I offer Baby Loss Coaching having been in my own dark valley and I will join you and walk alongside.

What people are saying about Mums Chat

“I don’t go to church but I was raised C of E. I am so impressed with each series of Mums Chat. It took me straight back to those early years. Marianne has really “been there”. Her compassion for mums is obvious, her faith is gentle not in-your-face and her tone is very reassuring”.

— Sue N, Mum, Grandma and Great Grandma
