As we enter a season of reflection and gratitude, we’re reminded how powerful care can be, not just in families' daily lives, but in the workplace too. For employees across industries, child care and family care benefits aren‘t just conveniences; they’re lifelines that shape how people show up at work, engage with their teams, and manage the demands of life beyond it.
In their own words, employees share what this support has meant to them, from easing stress to improving focus to deepening their sense of connection and loyalty to the organizations they work for. Their reflections offer a glimpse into what happens when employers invest in the whole person and why that investment matters more than ever.
Growing up – and staying with the company
“I love my company. I've been here 12 years, so clearly I have a huge sense of loyalty. But one thing I always remark on is how the company has grown with me from being a 21-year old intern to being a 33-year old mother of two. It truly feels like a family—here for every chapter of my career and life.” — Marketing Manager, Technology Sector
Finding balance between career and family
“I no longer feel like I have to choose between a career and being a mom. Instead, I get to do both, and to have that is, I think, irreplaceable.” — Senior Analyst, Healthcare Organization
Loyalty that began with child care
“I don’t even consider working anywhere else. I found myself drawn to this company and that started with the child care center.” — Operations Specialist, Financial Services
Cared for beyond the job
“It’s clear my employer cares about me—not just as a worker, but as a person with a family and a life outside the office.” — Project Coordinator, Retail Industry
Knowing I can count on my employer, no matter what changes
“No matter what stage of life I’m in, I know this company will help me navigate it. That’s why I stay.” — Team Lead, Manufacturing
What we heard from employees is simple: this support matters. It lightens their load and helps them stay present for the moments that matter the most.
We’re grateful to partner with organizations that make that possible.
