Bringing Your Family to Work

Bring Your Family to Work at the Child Development Center (“The Center”)

One of the many perks of being part of the Nestlé Purina family is that you can bring your family to work with you. Not only do we enjoy a pet friendly campus, but we can bring our children, too. Our Child Development Center (“The Center”)—located just across the street from our St. Louis Headquarters—provides many of our associates’ children with educational and social development. The Center is just one example of Nestlé Purina’s commitment to enriching the lives of our associates and their children.

Finding the best childcare is tough; and we know it requires site visits, interviews, research, and so much more before making the right decision for your family. Beyond being a place where your youngster will learn the ABCs and 123s, our space offers young children, from six weeks to six years old, the ability to prepare for successful transitions into elementary school and beyond. Additionally, The Center exposes children to Spanish, computer classes, gymnastics, and swimming among other activities through onsite learning and off-site field trips.  

Some of the benefits of associates utilizing The Child Development Center include a monthly ‘Parents Night Out’, an open-door policy for parents to visit any time during the day, the ability to walk across the street to have lunch with their kids, and the ease of attending school functions since many of them occur within The Tower Lobby at Purina’s headquarters campus.   “I loved the idea of having my kids so close to me during the day,” Angela Schneider, Director of People Analytics said. “Being a first-time mom and separating from my son when I transitioned back to work was difficult. I love being a mother, but I also love my job. "Knowing I could get to him in five minutes or less definitely helped ease the transition,” she said. “The teachers have helped me through some of the bigger milestones such as potty training and helping my children express their feelings. The daycare has really come through for our family in many ways.”

With a work-life balance mentality, we offer far more than on-site daycare to help balance working parents’ time, in and outside of the office. From flexible work schedules to work-from-home Fridays and beyond, we know balancing work and home is no easy task. Other benefits we offer to parents to help maintain the feeling of balance include a partnership with Bright Horizons® which provides you with back-up care when you need to be at work, but your family needs you, too. Or, our parental leave policy, offering 18-weeks of fully paid time off with your new baby or adopted child. Nestlé Purina is proud to provide associates with many outside-of-work benefits and conveniences, which allow us to build an employee-centric environment where our people can truly say they enjoy coming to work every day.
