get the parental leave of your dreams
The CA Parental leave Package
If you live in CA and want to make sure you are maxing out all of your job-protected and paid time off when you go on parental leave, this is the solution for you.
Along with a 45-minute private call with one of The Park’s parental leave consultants, you’ll also get the California parental leave benefits guide to reference throughout your leave planning journey, a personalized timeline for you and your partner, access to our bi-weekly parental leave office hours and and post-call email support if you have future questions. It’s everything you need to get the longest, paid parental leave possible.
Get ready to feel like a huge weight has been lifted off your shoulders. I promise!
What you’ll get:
This will not be your typical call with HR. Get ready to laugh, relax, and maybe even cry…but like in a good way ☺️
You and one of The Park’s parental leave consultants will talk through:
✔️ all the nuances of CA’s parental leave benefit programs
✔️ how your company’s parental leave program (if you have one) integrates in with disability and paid family leave
✔️ how to extend your parental leave and max out your paid and unpaid time off
✔️ how, where, and when to apply for your California benefits
✔️ why you need job protection, what programs you qualify for, and how to get it if you don’t qualify
✔️ your and your partner’s parental leave timeline
✔️ how to communicate your parental leave plan with your boss and HR
After our call I’ll email you a recap and any necessary action items.

Since I started The Park in 2021 we’ve helped thousands of new and expecting parents to get them the longest paid parental leave possible.
The CA Parental Leave package is everything you need so you can focus on you and your family, not complicated forms and confusing legal jargon.
How would it feel to know you are getting the longest, paid parental leave possible?
“Thank you for the consultation call a few months ago. I’m transitioning from my SDI to my PFL now and I feel so prepared and knowledgeable about this process. I’m one step ahead of the EDD at every stage 😂 .
In total, I’ll get 17 weeks paid for a total $24,500.
A lot more than I could have imagined!”

“I wholeheartedly recommend working with Linzay! I found navigating the whole parental leave process utterly confusing and intimidating, and Linzay answered all my questions and completely put me at ease.”

Not sure if the Parental Leave Package is right for you?
-
California offers two different paid parental leave programs:
State Disability Insurance (SDI)
Paid Family Leave (PFL)
To qualify for either program you need to have CASDI listed as a deduction on your paystub five to 18 months before your claim date, which is your first day of leave.
Need help determining if you qualify? Head here to find out.
-
If you’ve worked in the last two years(ish) as a W2 employee in CA, paying into CASDI you may still qualify for a minimum of 17 weeks of paid leave if you're a birthing parent, or 8 weeks of partially paid leave if you’re a dad or non-birthing parent.
If you haven’t worked in over two years you likely will not qualify for SDI or PFL.
-
I 100% understand. On average, my clients make $19,890 over the course of their parental leave.
If you want to be sure you’ll make enough to cover the cost of this program, you can calculate your parental leave payout here.
If the pricing still does not work for you, email me and we can work something out. Or download my FREE guide here.
