Testimonial
"Successful parenting requires a partnership. For a professional, that partnership extends to your employer. I enjoy the support, guidance and encouragement from my husband, family and friends. Without the active support and encouragement from V&E;, however, my return to work would have been much more difficult. Luckily for me and my son, V&E; had established policies in place which allowed me to plan my maternity leave and provide for child care with a clear understanding of what was expected of me through every stage of my maternity leave and subsequent return to work. For a working mom, it's all about partnerships, and for me, the partnership with V&E; has been a true blessing."
