Paid parental leave

Hi guys, trying to navigate the paid parental leave - good news managed to get an approval however my first pay has full deduction saying it’s getting paid to CSC Australia….. anyone knows what that means. Tried calling the help line (call went no where lol) and I’m still recovering from C-section so can’t make the trip yet but need the $
Any help would be greatly appreciated

If I Google is CSC Australia it is a business - like Sarah mentions… are they your employer? Cause if so, you’ll receive your entitlement on their next pay run. (But I’d probably email the HR or finance team to make sure they have received it!) Also - I can see your payment hasn’t included any tax, so check your employer takes this off or you’ll get stung at tax time.
Congrats on the new little Bub!!

CSC isn’t my employer - I think I’ll just add hubby name on my profile so he can talk on my behalf. OMG thanks for pointing out the tax will get him to mention that as well!

How strange! Yep I’d probably get him onto it asap. Best of luck with your recovery.

Going back to work!

Already thinking about this! Told my boss I was pregnant this week at 10 weeks, he was so happy for me. He’s recently became a first time Dad and was showing me pictures of his baby. I told him my plans about going back after 6 months and he looked at me like I was mad, am I!? I absolutely love my job and cannot imagine giving it up, I manage a team and am petrified my position won’t be there if I had a year off. My husband gets 6 months full pay so the plan would be for him to have the last 6 months off and I also made it clear to my boss that I would like to go part time. That way we can hopefully parent together 4/7 days rather than just the weekend! I am such an overthinking! 🤣 but this is what I’m struggling with the most, I’ve worked full time since I was 17 (12 years ago) and the max time I’ve had off in one go is 2 weeks when I got married. I’m sooo excited to be a Mum and we decided now was the right time, which it 100% is! But I feel so on edge about not working! I’m sure once I’m on maternity leave I won’t even think about work! Has anyone else felt the same?

What are we giving our soon-to-be 3yo for their birthdays?

We have the magnetiles, we have the kinetic sand and play doh, we have the play kitchen…

Literally, is there anything left in the world to buy this spoilt kid? 😅

Baby groups?

Hello there!!
I hope you enjoying the 5month babies 🫠 the cuteness outweighs everything over here.
We live in the area of Croydon & need to start going to baby groups ( I NEED it more than him though) but I am a little bit clueless. Any recommendations?
We are happy to travel a bit too.
Thanks ☺️

Is it just me?

I’m 35. I have a 21 month old and i’m 5 months pregnant. I have no friends. Everyone has either drifted away or ghosted me. I don’t know what i’ve done but i’m so lonely now. My best friend of 20 years has ghosted me and i’m heartbroken. I’ve tried to reach out to other friends but never get anywhere. I don’t know how to make new friends. I honestly just feel so alone.
