Who we are
Welcome to Moms on the Job. We are thrilled to have you join our community of first responder and law enforcement mothers who are working hard to balance two full-time jobs: being a dedicated professional and a loving mother. We understand the challenges you face, and we are here to provide a forum where you can equip, engage, and encourage one another.
As a mom, you want your children to thrive. You want to give them every opportunity you can but still show up to work on time. This is exactly what we are all about. We believe that building a supportive and empowering community for mothers in law enforcement and first responders helps us all thrive while managing the unique challenges of this career and motherhood.
Here at Moms on the Job, we aim to create a place where you can learn, lean on each other, and find support as we navigate the daily balancing act of motherhood: breastfeeding and pumping at work, finding reliable childcare, managing schedules, and everything in between. Every mom’s experience is unique. Together, we can create a space where we can share, learn, and care for each other.
Founder
Jessicah Perez is the Founder of Moms on the Job, a dedicated community group for mothers who serve as Law Enforcement Officers and First Responders. The organization was born from her personal experience as a working mother, recognizing the need for a strong support system and resources to help families thrive both at home and in the workplace.
She has served with the Los Angeles Police Department for a decade. Past assignments have included patrol, the gang enforcement detail and field training officer. She’s also served as a detective and patrol sergeant. Jessicah currently finds herself supervising the Gang Enforcement Detail at Newton Division.
Jessicah is married and the proud mother of two beautiful daughters, ages three and one. She holds a bachelor’s degree in English from Biola University.
Although Jessicah is very busy being a full-time momma and police officer, she will always find the time to read a good book, get her work out in and go for a run. She especially loves barbecuing with her husband.
