join us on Clubhouse!
a series of conversations & story sharing about life as a working parent.
How do I get through the day juggling work and family all in one place? How do I nurse or pump on back-to-back Zoom calls?
How do I get the to do list done while homeschooling without childcare? And how can we create workplace cultures that evolve with the ever-changing—ever vital—needs of working families?
These answers are in this community, and community is at our pumpspotting core.
As part of our virtual Listening Tour we’re holding space to listen to all of you. To drive important conversations around the state of working parenthood. To help employers rethink support.
And most of all, to share stories, celebrate the wins, and nourish all you hard-working parents as you navigate hard things.
Your voice matters.
Join us for a series of Clubhouse conversations around working parenthood.
All voices—and babies, pumps, dogs in the background—welcome!
