It's all happening here! New parent support groups and classes.

We understand that becoming a parent can be both exciting and challenging, and that's why we offer a wide range of support groups and classes to help you navigate this transformative time in your life.

Our new parent support groups provide a safe and nurturing space for all parents to come together and share their experiences, joys, and struggles. Led by experienced doulas and facilitators, these groups offer a supportive environment where you can connect with others who are going through similar experiences.

Whether you have questions about breastfeeding, sleep schedules, or simply need a listening ear, our support groups are here to provide you with guidance and encouragement.

Additionally, we offer a variety of classes designed to prepare you for the various aspects of parenthood. From prenatal classes that cover labor and delivery to postnatal classes that focus on newborn care and early parenting, our expert instructors will equip you with the knowledge and skills you need to feel confident in your new role as a parent.

Some of the topics covered in our classes include:

  1. Prenatal education: Understanding the stages of labor, coping techniques, and birth planning.

  2. Breastfeeding support: Learning the basics of breastfeeding, troubleshooting common challenges, and fostering a strong bond with your baby.

  3. Newborn care: Nurturing your baby, diapering, bathing, soothing techniques, and sleep strategies.

  4. Postpartum wellness: Taking care of yourself during the postpartum period, addressing physical and emotional changes, and seeking support when needed.
