Reading something like this from one of our stellar team members who is enjoying her mat leave brought tears to our eyes. Not only do we strive for a supportive and growth driven team that balances work and life, but we truly care about our team as if they are family. β

I know so many young professional women who are still torn between growing their family and crushing their work life. They’re worried about career growth and what will happen if they get pregnant, need time off, take maternity leave, need to tend to their children. β

I’m beyond grateful to these two amazing leaders, Madilynn Harker and Julilyn Woods for their support. Throughout my pregnancy, they went above and beyond to make sure I was accommodated and felt comfortable taking the time to do what I needed to do for my growing family. Not many people can say their boss knew they were pregnant at 6 weeks, but mine did, and they were ecstatic for me. When my sweet little guy arrived 2 weeks before I was supposed to start maternity leave, they made the transition seamless so there was absolutely nothing I needed to think about except my new baby. β

Many companies talk about how they’re all for work/life balance and ensuring their employees are taken care of, but I’ve never met two people who genuinely put that into action the same way these two do. β

Finding leaders and a team like the gals at The Small Social Company is rare, and I consider working there one of the best decisions I’ve made in life."
