There’s no doubt, the parenting learning curve can be steep. One minute, the only person you have to worry about is yourself. And the next, you have the life of a tiny baby in your hands. And there’s so much to learn-breastfeeding, sleep training and perfecting that stealth maneuver to get your sleeping child out of a car seat. Add on top of that, the legal issues-understanding maternity leave benefits, hiring baby nurses and nannies, and returning to work. It can be overwhelming. As a mom, the lawyer at Mom, Esq. understands this all too well. One day, she was an employee on maternity leave, the next, she found herself an employer to a nanny. So, she has made it her business to help moms and dads understand and handle the legal issues that go hand in hand with parenthood-so they can get back to the more important business of being parents. www.momesquire.com New Blog from RosieBear: Dedicated to Keeping Families Organized Check out the new blog from RosieBear.
