Not sure that this was the real intent. Germany was notorious for having many stay at home mothers.
So women had to chose between family and career, which partly explains the low birth rate.
Actually it is still the case because school finishes around 2 pm, so many parents (often the mother) have to work part time because of that.
An indirect consequence maybe a decrease of the gender salary gap, but I doubt this was the main purpose...
