Senator Tammy Duckworth Makes History Bringing her Baby to the Senate

Illinois Senator Tammy Duckworth made history recently when she became the first US senator to bring her newborn baby onto the Senate floor.

Beautiful baby Maile Pearl was just 10 days old when she made her big Senate debut, safely wrapped up with her mother in a Baby K’tan sling.

Keep your little one close, whether you’re making history or making memories at home.

Just the day before Maile’s historic trip, Senators had unanimously voted to overturn the baby-ban and allow infants onto the Senate floor. And before you ask, Maile was good as gold when the time came and slept through the whole thing!

Senator Duckworth had worked hard to change the rule, ensuring she’d be able to vote while caring for her newborn and hoping to set a positive example of family-friendly workplace policies to the nation.

 

Tammy Duckworth: Pushing Boundaries

 

As an Asian-American woman, an Iraq War Veteran, former Black Hawk helicopter pilot and double amputee working in politics, Tammy is no stranger to pushing boundaries and making history.

She was the first Asian-American woman elected to Congress in Illinois, the first disabled woman to be elected to the United States Congress and the first member of US Congress born in Thailand.

And after welcoming baby Maile in April she became the first sitting senator to give birth while in office.

 

A post shared by Baby K’tan (@babyktan) on

 

Here at Seraphine, we think Tammy is amazing. Her efforts to make her own working environment a more family-friendly place will pave the way to empowering generations of women to balance high-powered careers with family life.

The theme of the first Royal Foundation Forum was ‘Making a Difference Together’, which perfectly sums up the mission of the organisation.

 

 

The Royal Foundation was set up by the two Princes back in 2009. It serves as the charitable vehicle through which the young royals support their various causes – from wildlife conservation to the armed forces, young people, mental health and more.

The Duchess of Cambridge joined them after her wedding in 2011, and Meghan will officially become a patron later this spring, after her marriage to Prince Harry.

 

 

This week, the Royals brought together all the organisations they work with through their foundation to set out their visions for the future.

The Duchess in particular, highlighted her on-going commitment to tackling mental health issues through every stage of life, starting in childhood.

 

 

 

This dress is a favourite of The Duchess. She also wore it back in January to launch the Heads Together initiative, Mentally Healthy Schools.

Clemency’s dress comes from our Luxe Collection of evening dresses. The style featured a flattering A-line skirt in silk with a feminine lace bodice & a stunning jewelled belt to highlight her empire waist.

And of course, like many other women at this year’s awards, Clemency chose to wear black in support of #timesup, combatting sexual harassment and discrimination within the entertainment industry and the wider community.

We here at Seraphine are fully behind the movement & respect the courage shown by everyone who wore black this year.

 

 

As a member of the BAFTA Council, actress, musician & author Clemency is one of the industry insiders who vote to determine the outcome of the Awards.

She is also mum to a 3-year-old son, and currently 35 weeks pregnant with her next little one.

 

 

On top of all this, Clemency has recently released a book! The Year of Wonder is a beautiful compendium of classical music, from medieval to modern day – one piece for every day of the year.

The book was inspired by her experiences with miscarriage, and the music which helped her to cope and re-discover the little everyday joys in life.

The Year of Wonder is now available to buy on Amazon.
