Creating a safe and convenient working space for pregnant women or women who are breastfeeding and nursing their babies should be a priority of any organisation. And let’s just say that Disney knows how to do it right. Actress Sophia Di Martino who plays the role of Sylvie in the Disney+ Hotstar series, Marvel’s Loki recently shared about her experience of working and looking after her baby. She also shared how her costume was specially designed to allow her to pump breast milk on set.
The British actor posted a picture of herself in her black catsuit, which her character is seen wearing on the show, with designer Christine Wada having altered it with zippers.
“It’s not easy being a working Mama (Understatement!) #christinewada designed Sylvie’s costume and had the genius idea of adding concealed zippers for easy access so that I could use my hands-free @elvie pumps easily (pictured) and nurse my baby between takes. It’s little (big) things like this that made it possible for me to do my job AND be a parent. I’m forever grateful” she wrote in the caption.
Small efforts like this play a big role in helping women to be a superhero in their personal as well as their professional lives.
