Welcome to our Maternity Leave Virtual Workshop! In this session, we’re going to break down everything you need to know about the benefits available to you, including FMLA, CFRA, Bonding, PDL, SDI, and PFL. A lot of new moms settle for just 4 months off, but in California, most of us are eligible for up to 7 months of paid leave—and in some cases, even 12 months with pay! We’ll show you how to combine state, federal, and employer benefits, so you don’t leave any time or money on the table.
We’ll also go over the nitty-gritty of when and how to file your claims, what the eligibility requirements are, and how to calculate your benefits so you know exactly where you stand financially during your leave. Plus, we’ll make sure you know how to keep everything running smoothly so there are no surprises or delays.
And if you need to extend your leave, we’ve got you covered there too. We’ll give you tips on how to handle that and how to keep your employer in the loop along the way. By the end of this workshop, you’ll have all the info you need to make the most of your maternity leave—so you can focus on what really matters: your new baby!

Baby Sign Language Playgroup
Our Introductory Workshop is recommended prior to taking a playgroup series unless you are already familiar with American Sign Language (ASL).
Stop guessing what your baby is trying to tell you and start spending more time fulfilling your child's specific needs. Baby Sign Language gives parents the opportunity to communicate with children long before babies can verbalize their wants and needs. Research studies show that signing with babies accelerates language acquisition, reduces frustration and aggressive behavior, and as children mature, results in a greater interest in reading. Out of all the wonderful benefits of baby sign language, the most important benefit of all is that signing will greatly deepen the bond between you and your child.
This 6-week series class is a fun opportunity for you to build
your signing vocabulary with themes like mealtime, animals, colors,
family, bedtime, and more! We've split 18 sessions into three
different six-day series named after the primary colors: Red,
Yellow, and Blue. No need to take them in order. Just dive in and
start learning now.
