Welcome to the website for Work Parents!
My name is Ellie Halvorson. I am an MBA, marketing professional in the tech space, an avid reader, amateur runner, yogi, and coffee enthusiast.
I launched this site in 2022 – the conversations I’d been having with my friends (men and women both) about parental leave, deciding to keep working or not once a baby came, and balancing work-life with family-life made me stop and wonder if there were resources out there for us. Were there people we could learn from who had gone before us? Obviously, there are tons who have thought the same thoughts and come to the same decisions, but it wasn’t easily accessible.
So it drove me to action. I wanted to start a resource base for parents and soon-to-be-parents – to share tips, to tell stories, and to help each other. This website is that resource base. I’m thrilled to share the journey with you.
I hope you enjoy the resources you find on this site. If you have any questions or comments, please contact me. I’d love to hear from you!
