First-Time Moms Group

For first-time moms with shared expected delivery dates (within 2 months), this one-of-a-kind “before and after” care program is designed to support you in your new motherhood journey. This supportive and cohesive small group with other first-time moms aims to increase your confidence while building applicable tools & strategies for preparation and adjustment to end-of-pregnancy and postpartum period.
