FT. WORTH-Every day is a family affair at Crescent Real Estate Equities, which has added a “Moms First” at its corporate headquarters in Ft. Worth.

The addition is a private retreat created for employees.”My department had received several requests for accommodations for moms who are expecting or new moms, nursing at home, with a need for privacy,” explains Tammy Kendall, manager of administrative services. “Of the current employees in the corporate office, approximately 10% are expecting or have had a baby in the past year.” Kendall and Tom Shaw, vice president of human resources and administration, are the brains behind the latest employee perk.

The facility is housed in a renovated 10-foot by 15-foot office, out of the headquarters’ main traffic flow. It is accessible to restrooms and kitchen facilities. The room is outfitted with at-home furnishings and cozy lighting. The lounge also is insulated from office noise.
