Bumpy Birth Stories Circle returns on 9/26/26 12-2pm. This is a soft landing place to share and heal from challenging births and postpartum transitions to parenthood. Facilitator and midwife Mason Wilson-Tanev has a deep passion for supporting parents through this vulnerable time. “The facilitator was very warm, kind, and knowledgeable and she created a very safe space for sharing. I really appreciated her medical background paired with more therapy-driven work. It was the perfect combination for this kind of workshop.” Link to register in bio 💕

“I learned all about the key baby care tools and came away feeling much more ready for my newborn! The videos to provide visuals of babies were particularly helpful, as was the practice with the dolls. Selene was so kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable - I loved her!” -JG. Our Baby Care workshop is focused on the practical skills and info you need to feel ready for your new housemate to move in. Taught by lovely, experienced postpartum doulas Selene and Nicky, who know exactly what’s needed to support new families through transition to parenthood! Offered monthly!

✨ New workshop for birthing folks! ✨ With the rate of inductions being what it is, we’re glad to be offering this workshop to the community. Get the scoop on all things induction so you can be informed and prepared should it become part of your birth experience (or even just a topic of conversation with your friends or care providers!). We’ll cover the what and why of inductions, including methods and coping techniques, and how to identify your preferences and communicate with care providers along the way. This 2.5 hour workshop is facilitated by local birth practitioners with years of experience supporting families through inductions, and a passion for strong and empowered birth experiences.
