Community
We talk about community being so important while we move through pregnancy, birth and early postpartum but truthfully community is helpful always and especially in the changing seasons that parenthood holds. So here are some beautiful offerings from us, our doulas, educators and friends of Radiant Birth.

There is no agenda, you are welcome to talk, watch your kids crawl or run around, listen, sit quietly, or simply be in the room with others who get this whole parenting thing. The space is intentionally inclusive of diverse identities, family structures, cultures, neurotypes, and parenting journeys.
