About Fivash Media Group Take the Kids to Work Along with other employers, Wizards of the Coast has increased employee retention by adding an on-site childcare facility. By Alexandra Purnell Lohr Juliane Parsons' life got a little simpler the day her company opened its own childcare center. Instead of getting up, getting her two children ready, and taking them to separate places for the day, both children now go to work with her. Parsons can park her car, take the children to the on-site childcare center, and walk to her office. It shortens my day.
Parsons says the push to get the center came from employees with young families.
That time, we didn't get all that far. A year and a half later, the employees tried again to get a childcare center. They researched the possibilities and did surveys of their coworkers. As director of project management at Wizards, Parsons needed to balance a demanding job with the responsibility of raising two young children. Having her children at her work site made her feel more comfortable about their care during her working hours.
