This benefit is available to all team members on their first day of work, as long as their child was born or newly adopted during their employment at GitLab.

I've also removed a handful of errant space characters (see reasoning in the Editorial team handbook, added a missing or, and missing oxford comma I noticed per the writing style guidelines
