We’re thrilled for the return of our Postpartum Support Circles where wisdom and shared experiences remind us we are not alone. Attendees are welcome to bring their infants with them, or join our group solo. Each gathering is open to all who have given birth within the past 18 months.
We always have a topic in mind, however we adapt to the requests of the group. We’ll provide tea for the caregivers, and a baby-friendly room with toys and books on hand for littles. You don’t need to be struggling to join this supportive community.
