Mothercare: Reducing Anxiety & Depletion Group
Motherhood is fraught with challenges, complex emotions, and constant changes. Whether you are an expecting, new, or experienced mother, many of us are anxious, depleted, and in need of a safe place for processing and understanding. Join us for discussion, encouragement, and social support each week with one of our qualified postpartum group facilitators.
While our group topics and conversations are participant led, we have a schedule of upcoming Special Guest Speakers.

Babywearing Monthly Group
Each month we will gather to answer your questions about babywearing, assist with fit checks, and have a chance to chat with other families who babywear in the community. There is also the opportunity to try different carriers from our consultant's collection. Bring your babies, your carriers, and your questions! This group is appropriate for any caregivers who are interested in babywearing, including expectant caregivers too. All experience levels are welcome!
