Join this warm and supportive community dedicated to enhancing the bond and confidence between parents and their precious little ones! 

 

Hosted by a Pediatric Occupational Therapist, the focus will be on development and regulation. The group will guide you through engaging activities and provide valuable insights into fostering a strong foundation for your baby's development while connecting other parents in a similar stage.

 

Encouragement + connection 

 

Each group will cover a variety of developmental and parenting topics. This is a non judgmental space for open discussion, questions, and learning from each other.

    What to bring

    • Your baby 

    • A blanket to sit on 

    • Your diaper bag/essentials for baby 

    • Any snacks or drinks you may need 

    • Questions you have about baby development

     

    Find comfort 

    • All types of feeding are welcome during the group. You are welcome to feed, change diapers or let your baby nap during our time. 

    • Crying is expected (for your baby and yourself too) 

    • This is a cohort style group that runs from Jan 9-Feb 6. Meeting time is 9:15-10:30am.

    • Each group will have time to chat, ask questions about development or mom life, and be with your baby in a nonjudgmental environment. Most weeks will have a discussion topic

    • We have the space from limited time each meeting.  I understand how hard it can be to get places on time with a baby AND I understand the importance of getting out of the house and just showing up to connect and learn. Do your best to come the whole time and get the most of it (and there is grace for you too) 

     

    Session attendance/illness 

    • Attendance is not mandatory but it is helpful to build a connection with other parents if people are able to attend regularly. 

      • There will be no refund for missed groups. 

    • We ask people to stay home if they are not feeling well 

      • Potential option to listen in from home to still get the education pieces from group

    • If I am ill, I will try to make sure you are aware the night before (unless, of course, illness strikes in the night)
