Post-Natal Sleep for New Mothers in the Workplace-image

The post‑natal period - often referred to as the fourth trimester - brings significant physical, emotional, and lifestyle changes for new mothers. One of the most widespread and impactful challenges during this time is disrupted sleep.

This webinar explores what happens to women’s bodies and minds after childbirth, why sleep becomes so fragmented, and how employers can better understand and support new mothers returning to work.

This webinar will provide participants with:

  • A working understanding of why sleep disruption is normal and expected during the post‑natal phase
  • Insight into the real cognitive and emotional impacts on returning mothers
  • Practical strategies for fostering a supportive environment, including flexible working options, compassionate communication, and realistic expectations around productivity and performance


This webinar is for all staff who want to know more about post-natal sleep.
