In Person Class Series

In Mind, Birth & Baby Essentials: In-Person, 4-class series


In this class, you will learn essential information about birth, breastfeeding and baby care, but through the lens of mindfulness. Learn to stay centered during pregnancy and childbirth. Practice breathing and comfort measures. Discover how responsive parenting can help you bond with your baby. Explore how mindful breastfeeding techniques will help you connect with your little one. Join us as we navigate the journey of birth and early parenthood!


For your comfort during relaxation practice, please bring 2 pillows and a blanket or mat to the second class.
