Hi there! Clueless future mum here... I am clueless and it's currently a sunday night so I can't just walk into my local centrelink office or disrupt my boss at home...
How does maternity leave work? Does my boss pay me when I'm off work having the baby? Does centrelink have anything to do with it? Do I have options on how long I can take off work?
I work in a small business of 6 employees and I work full time and have for 11years.
Obviously I will research some more and talk to centrelink and my boss.
I would appreciate your responses and your experiences.

You apply to centrelink, your employer confirms details when contacted then when bub comes you let centrelink know, then they pay your employer then employer pays you. A very simplified explanation but its pretty much how it goes.
