Well… we always knew this day would come 😢
Our legendary Office Manager Liv is officially heading off on maternity leave as she prepares to welcome Bub No.3 into the world! While we couldn’t be happier for her growing family, the rest of us are currently taking deep breaths into paper bags and Googling “how to run a clinic without Liv.”
For years, Liv has been the calm in the chaos, the steady voice at the end of the phone, the one who keeps this place upright while Joe wanders around in odd Christmas socks claiming it’s ‘strategic leadership.’
She’s organised us, rescued us, fed us and corrected our paperwork...
Now it’s time for her to swap emails for newborn cuddles, spreadsheets for swaddles, and staff reminders for “sleep when the baby sleeps”… (ha — as if).
Liv, from all of us here at Optimum:
Thank you for everything you’ve done, everything you’ve fixed, everything you’ve remembered when the rest of us forgot.
You’ve shaped this place more than you even realise.
We’ll miss you massively, but we’re cheering you on for this next chapter, and we cannot wait to meet the newest little member of Team Optimum 👶💚
Enjoy the baby bubble, the slow days, the chaos, the magic...soak it up.
We’ll hold the fort, keep your chair warm, and try not to break anything while you’re gone..😳
Love and best wishes from all of us!!
