Enlightening Workplaces: BuddhaBooth and MommaWork Announce Groundbreaking Partnership

NEW YORK - Nov. 26, 2019 - PRLog -- Portable meditation pod giant BuddhaBooth and working parent advocate MommaWork have joined forces to provide a solution for employers who are serious about supporting their employees and getting compliant with lactation accommodation law. BuddhaBooth is launching "MommaBooth," the turnkey solution allowing employers to comply with lactation accommodation law in a budget and space conscious way.

With an increasing number of municipalities requiring employers to provide lactation spaces for breastfeeding moms to express their breastmilk during the workday, MommaBooths offer a private, elegant solution. Under the law, employers must provide a space that is not a bathroom. When office space is limited, and further buildouts are not possible, MommaBooths offer the perfect solution. These compact, lightweight booths fit nearly anywhere, eliminating the stress of converting existing office space into lactation space for the breastfeeding mother. When the need for lactation space is complete, the MommaBooth can easily transform into a chic meditation space, perfect for helping employees recharge.

An Enlightened Partnership

MommaWork's partnership with BuddhaBooth to find a beautiful, functional, and legally compliant transient space for employees to tend to their lactation needs was a match made in Nirvana.

MommaWork CEO, Debi Yadegari, is thrilled with the innovative solution MommaBooths provide her clients.  She states, "I am so excited about this partnership because MommaBooths make it win-win. We now offer a simple way for (1) employers to conform with legal requirements and (2) employees to meet their personal breastfeeding goals. With a return to work often cited as the number one reason moms stop breastfeeding, this partnership will allow more moms to continue the breastfeeding relationship and reap the long-term health benefits for mom and baby, with gratitude to their employer for their support."

BuddhaBooth founder Francine Steadman, mother of three, is in complete agreement. She states, "Our ultimate goal of providing private serene spaces for multiple sectors is amplified by the privilege of sharing our MommaBooths to support working moms and their commitment to continued nursing.  Employers can count on the portability of our units which create easy "access-within-reach" and can ultimately benefit all employees, seamlessly fitting into broader wellness initiatives when not needed as a lactation space."

Lactation Law Compliance Made Simple

MommaWork, listed by Forbes as a company "disrupting parenthood as we know it" is the country's leading provider of working parent support, offering employer and employee support services including, comprehensive corporate lactation support programs, new parent transition and family coaching, legal and HR compliance oversight, management sensitivity training and hospital-grade breast pump rentals. Its programs and services are instrumental in transforming the landscape for working parents across the country, assisting employers with the development of internal policies and procedures to minimize risk, decrease legal liability, and detect potential violations of legal and regulatory requirements.

MommaWork believes employees should not have to choose between achieving their personal goals and professional success.  Its partnership with BuddhaBooth furthers its mission of providing employees with the tools and resources to achieve both, while delivering a powerful and sustainable return on investment to employers. Companies with comprehensive lactation support programs, including lactation rooms, can see a post-maternity retention rate of 94%, compared to the national average of 59%.
