We know that returning to work is a milestone filled with mixed emotions—excitement, anxiety, and a whole lot of logistical planning, especially for breastfeeding parents. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce that Milk Stork has partnered with Kids & Company to make this transition smoother and less stressful for you! Returning to work as a breastfeeding parent can feel like you’re walking a tightrope—with your heart on one side and your career on the other.

The Stress of The Transition

Returning to work post-baby is a whirlwind of emotions and logistics, especially if you’re breastfeeding. Separation anxiety, concerns about breast milk supply, worrying about space and time to pump while managing a full workload—it’s a lot. You want the best for your child, but you also have a job to get back to, and balancing the two can feel overwhelming.

Why Quality Childcare Matters

Good childcare isn’t just a place to drop off your baby, it’s an extension of your family’s ecosystem. Kids & Company is a leading childcare provider in North America, operating over 150 child care locations across the United States and Canada. For more than 20 years, they’ve provided nurturing and stimulating environments where children develop independence, confidence, and a positive sense of self and the world around them.

A Meaningful Partnership

We’ve partnered with Kids & Company to make it easier for you to manage this transition. Their specialized infant programs work in tandem with your breastfeeding goals so that you can continue to nourish your baby with the breast milk you work so hard to produce. We love how Kids & Company champions the needs of working, breastfeeding parents by offering flexible schedules, top-notch facilities, in-house catering, and an emergent curriculum!
