Do your employees know what their fertility benefits cover?
Many families we support use workplace benefits to help pay for postpartum doula care. Most people assume programs like Carrot Fertility and Maven are only for fertility. Many also include pregnancy and postpartum support, and most employees never find out. If your company doesn't offer a family benefit yet, a simple postpartum care stipend can fill the gap.
