ℹ️From April 6, the new neonatal care leave and pay entitlement will give eligible parents paid time off to be by their baby’s side—without fearing losing income or rushing back to work too soon. 🗣️Bliss has fought for this moment, but now we need employers to play their part. Make sure your organisation is ready. Share this policy with your teams so families with babies in neonatal care can be supported and get the leave they’re entitled to.

ℹ️From April 6, parents of premature and sick babies will finally have the right to neonatal care leave and pay, giving them more time to be where they’re needed most. 💙Neonatal healthcare professionals see firsthand how vital this time is.
