Support new mothers and parents and boost your business

Postpartum care that protects your top performers

Professional postpartum care for your employees

Kindr provides comprehensive postpartum support through qualified, professionally trained postpartum carers who help your new mothers and partners thrive during the critical transition to parenthood - ensuring they return to work thriving.

We see benefits for parents in pregnancy and returning to work, but we're offering a package that helps them while they're isolated at home in a new phase of life, beginning their journey to raise the next generation.

Why it matters: The hidden cost of unsupported new parents

Your top performers are at risk

  • 1 in 5 mothers and 1 in 10 partners experience postpartum depression globally
  • 25% of mothers experience symptoms for up to 3 years after childbirth
  • The transition from structured, outcome-driven professional jobs to unpredictable, emotionally intense parenting with no measurable tasks or outcomes, can be a harsh transition and create identity loss and mental health challenges.

The business impact

  • 85% of mothers leave their jobs within 3 years of childbirth[5]
  • Delayed return to work and reduced productivity from exhausted, unsupported parents
  • Reduced female leadership pipeline and institutional knowledge

The economic reality

  • Australia is underutilising 50% of its economic potential
  • We could add $128 billion to the economy by boosting women's workforce participation[4]
  • Mothers reduce their paid work hours by 35% across their first 5 years of motherhood[4]
  • A 25-year-old woman with one child will earn $2 million less in her lifetime[3]
  • The gender pay gap of 13.8% - motherhood is one of the key drivers[2]

The business benefits

Attract & retain top female talent

Boost workplace productivity

  • Well-rested parents (thanks to overnight postpartum carer support) bring their best selves to work
  • Reduced absenteeism, or turnover with better supported parents leading to a reduction in postpartum mental health issues
  • More confident return to work with professional transition support

Develop stronger leaders

  • With the right postpartum support, parents return more emotionally resilient, adaptable, and equipped to lead with clarity and empathy
  • Navigating the unpredictability and lack of control in birth and postpartum builds a deeper capacity for compassion, flexibility, and respect for others' challenges - valuable traits in any workplace
  • Create confidence in parenting skills that translates to stronger management capabilities

Proven results you can trust

Research shows us that professional postpartum support dramatically reduces postpartum depression rates[6]. When parents receive essential overnight care, empathetic guidance, and 24/7 expert access through qualified postpartum carers, they return to work healthier, more focused, and ready to contribute at their highest level.
