California Maternity Leave Consulting

California Maternity Leave Consulting helps parents and employers navigate parental leave benefits, with a focus on helping California employees secure the paid time and time off available to them. The business was founded by Diane, a licensed engineer who became a strategic benefits expert. She says she has helped thousands of parents understand and make use of state, insurance, and employer benefits so they can spend more time bonding with their babies.

For employees, the company offers resources ranging from self-paced courses with live office hours to done-for-you planning and paperwork support. Its guidance covers California programs such as State Disability Insurance (SDI), Paid Family Leave (PFL), the California Family Rights Act (CFRA), and the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), as well as employer leave programs. Business owners, including those with S-corporations, can seek maternity leave planning and paperwork services. Employers can work with the consultancy to develop paid parental leave policies that consider costs, competitiveness, and talent retention.
