Worry-free parental leave.

Step away to focus on your family without sacrificing your hard-earned career momentum.

Hit pause, not rewind on your career.

Too often, parental leave has felt like pressing pause at the risk of losing ground. With Mother Cover, you can step away knowing your projects, goals, and team continue to move forward—just as if you were still there. When you return, the baton is passed back seamlessly, and your progress is intact.

At Mother Cover, we protect your career while giving you the peace of mind to focus fully on your family. Your strategy continues seamlessly, and we help you transition smoothly out of—and back into—your role.

How we support you

Tailored coverage for your role

Every role is different. That’s why our coverage is fully customizable to fit both your needs and your company’s. Whether you need full-time backfill of your responsibilities or fractional support for key priorities (10-30 hours/week), we adapt. Our goal is to keep your work moving forward—not just held in place—so you return to steady progress, not stalled projects.

Co-created transition plan

Preparing for a new baby comes with endless to-dos at work and at home. We’ll partner with you before your leave to map out a transition plan that captures every detail—projects, priorities, and stakeholders. With our transition guide, you’ll step away confident nothing is left behind.

Staying informed on your terms

You shouldn’t feel pulled back into the day-to-day, but you also shouldn’t return in the dark. That’s why we create “bread crumbs” for your return: monthly written updates that capture key decisions, context, and team updates. These touchpoints give you the option to stay as connected as you’d like. Enough to feel informed, never overwhelmed—and always entirely optional.

Smooth re-onboarding

Coming back shouldn’t feel like starting over. Our Welcome Back Brief summarizes milestones, key decisions, and project updates so you’re fully caught up. We design a structured handback period—including optional overlap with your Leave Partner—so you can return at a sustainable pace. The baton is passed seamlessly, and your progress continues without missing a beat.
