PREPARING FOR BIRTH AND BABY (virtual)

$250 Monthly Group (5 sessions)

Preparing for your baby requires more than a gift registry. So often, I hear mamas say they "just didn't know" - didn't know their choices, didn't know what to research, didn't know what to prepare for. In this group, you will find support from peers and evidence-based information from a certified doula so you can feel informed and empowered as you enter (or re-enter) motherhood. From pregnancy to postpartum, no topic is off the table! All personal choices will be supported. Partners welcome during designated sessions.

Topics include:

What to expect throughout pregnancy
Considerations when determining birth preferences (your choices, your rights)
Preparing for labor and delivery
Preparing for postpartum

Recommended for first-time parents and those looking for a different experience than their previous one. For the best experience, the mother should join the group between 4-16wks pregnant. Group facilitated by Hannah Murfet, LCSW/CD

When: 1st Sunday of every month, 2-3:30pm
