Bubbadesk Opens In Neutral Bay

Ms FELICITY WILSON (North Shore)

—Speaker As a single mother, I understand how difficult it can be to strike a harmonious work-life balance while raising young children. My children have brought immeasurable joy to my life, but juggling full-time work and caring for them is not without its hurdles. I acknowledge the incredible organisation BubbaDesk and their game- changing approach to combining work and childcare. I am thrilled to announce that BubbaDesk will be launching in Neutral Bay in January next year. BubbaDesk is Australia's first co-working space offering onsite childcare – an innovative solution for parents navigating the complexities of balancing work and family. The Neutral Bay facility will boast amenities designed to support productivity and promote a happy and healthy environment for children while their parents are at work. These include private call spaces, blacked-out sleep rooms, and a breastfeeding room. The co-working space will fully cater to the needs of parents who are transitioning back to work and even features an onsite boardroom. I want to acknowledge and congratulate visionary BubbaDesk Founder Lauren Perrett. Her hard work, dedication, and passion have yielded something truly inspiring, and I applaud her for her compassionate outlook and vision.
