The 28-year-old actress is pregnant with her second child, and the soap star - who has 12-month-old son Mexx with boyfriend Kean Bryan - is enjoying a "natural break" from the ITV show.
When asked if she has plans to reprise her role as Sophie Webster - who she has played since 2004 - she said: "I do, but I've been in 'Corrie' from the age of 11, so I feel like it's a natural break for me to have - having kids and being a mum.
"It goes so quick. Mexx is one and I don't know where that time has gone.
"I would really regret not being at home with them as much as I can be.
"While I can stay off work, I'm going to."
The cobbles star has discussed marriage with her pro footballer partner, but they don't have any plans to wed just yet and she is glad they didn't tie the knot before having Mexx.
Speaking to OK! magazine, she added: "We've always spoken about marriage, but I don't necessarily think a ring on my finger is going to change our relationship.
"I'm glad that I didn't get married before having Mexx.
"We'd be marrying as a family now, and that's what we'd get married for, to become one. I'd want my babies there."
Brooke is currently in her second trimester and is due to give birth next spring.
