Enter your due date and we'll map out every key date and task, no need to count weeks yourself.
This is a flexible guide, not a rulebook, every pregnancy and workplace is different.
Your maternity leave timeline
Handover Builder
Structured fields, not a blank box, add to this as things come to mind, it doesn't need to be done in one sitting.

Annual Leave Accrual During Your Leave
Statutory annual leave keeps accruing at your normal rate throughout all 52 weeks of maternity leave, paid or unpaid, this is a hard legal entitlement, not something your employer can pause.
Maternity Communication Tracker
You're not responsible for remembering every conversation yourself. A simple record of what was discussed, what was agreed, and when to follow up, from your first announcement through to your first weeks back.
How Much Contact Do You Want During Leave?
"Keeping in touch" can easily slide into "working while on maternity leave" if you haven't agreed the boundary first. Tick what applies to you.
