Keep the working parents you've invested in.
Support before leave, during leave and through the first 90 days back, for the home side most leave programs miss.
Your leave policy worked. So why did they quit?
Most companies plan the time off well. Where they lose people is the first 90 days back, when the job and the baby both need everything. Sleep is broken. Childcare is new. Routines at home haven't settled. And managers often don't know what to say.
What your parents will feel
- They head out on leave with a plan, not a pile of loose ends.
- They come back rested enough to think, with childcare that works.
- Their mornings have a rhythm, so their workdays do too.
- Their manager knows what to say, and what not to.
- They stop wondering whether this job still fits their life.
And you keep the people you spent years developing.
Support at every stage of the leave.
Before leave
A planning session, a stage-specific workbook and a handoff guide for their manager.
During leave
Light-touch support on sleep, feeding, routines and childcare planning, on the parent's terms.
The first 90 days back
Structured coaching through the return, the window when most parents decide whether to stay.
Start small, or build a year-round program.
Every option is virtual-first and works for remote, hybrid and on-site teams.
Leave-to-Return Rhythm Program
One-on-one coaching for each parent, from before leave through 90 days back.
Leading Working Parents
A 90-minute training so managers know what to say before, during and after leave.
Rhythm at Work Workshops
60-minute virtual sessions for parents and parents' employee groups. A lunch-and-learn favorite.
Sponsored Program Seats
Give parents a seat in POSH Parenthood's stage-based programs, from the newborn weeks to kindergarten.
POSH Family Partnership
A year-round program: coaching seats, workshops, monthly office hours and impact reports.
We'll recommend the right fit
Tell us about your team on a 20-minute call, and we'll suggest where to start.
Most employers start with a 90-day pilot: five parents, one manager training and a results report.
Book a 20-Minute CallBuilt for the part of leave HR can't see.
The home side
Sleep, routines and childcare transitions, built on the R.H.Y.T.H.M. Framework™, Dr. Shanelle Bolton's own signature framework.
Every kind of parent
Birth, non-birthing, adoptive, foster and LGBTQIA+ parents, and solo parents by choice.
Confidential
Employers see group results only, never individual responses.
Measured
Every pilot ends with a report on return and retention.
Virtual-first
Works for remote, hybrid and on-site teams.
Replacing one employee costs about $45,000. Keep just one parent, and a five-parent pilot pays for itself more than two and a half times over.

Dr. Shanelle Bolton, EdD
When a family's home life has no rhythm, everything else falls apart, including work.
Dr. Shanelle Bolton holds a doctorate in education from NYU and has spent her career in early childhood and family services, including overseeing programs that served more than 200,000 families. She founded POSH Parenthood, a rhythm-based family wellness practice, to give working parents a rhythm that works at home and at work.
She created the R.H.Y.T.H.M. Framework™ after seeing, again and again, what happens to families, and to their work, when home has no rhythm.
What HR leaders ask us.
Is this therapy or medical care?
No. POSH Parenthood provides coaching and education. When a parent needs medical, mental health or lactation support, we refer them to the right professional.
Who can take part?
Every parent: birth and non-birthing parents, adoptive and foster parents, parents through surrogacy, LGBTQIA+ parents and solo parents by choice, before, during or after leave.
What does the employer see?
Group results only: participation, satisfaction, and return and retention numbers. Never individual responses.
How is it delivered?
Virtually, by video, with messaging between sessions. Workshops and manager trainings can also be delivered in person across New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Delaware, and beyond the region by arrangement. On-site details and any travel are included in your proposal.
How do we start?
Most employers start with a 90-day pilot or a single workshop. We'll recommend the right fit on a 20-minute call.
Can employees use their own benefit funds?
Many employers' lifestyle spending accounts and wellness stipends cover programs like ours. Employees should check their plan.
