Postpartum Support
I am excited to be offering in home assistance to families with newborns. Whether you are first time parents or have other children at home, bringing home a newborn can be overwhelming. I hope to be able to take some of the chaos out of this transition and create a more peaceful environment for the whole family. Parents are provided with support in newborn care, breastfeeding, and postpartum healing and adjustment; assistance with older siblings; infant massage sessions; and access to my extensive lending library and list of community resources.
Services are offered as package deals or on an hourly basis. Each visit must be at least one hour in length. Exact hours are to be determined at contract signing.
I thank you for allowing me the opportunity to be a part of your journey.
I am currently not taking new postpartum clients. Please contact us for a list of other postpartum support available.

Breastfeeding Classes and Support
These two hour classes are designed to be taken prenatally in the last trimester of pregnancy and provide information on how to establish and maintain a successful breastfeeding relationship with your baby. Parents will be given information on different holds, proper latch, managing problems, pumping and storing milk, and much more. In addition, I am also available to provide support once baby is born.
Babyfood Making Workshops
The Goddess Within and Servings are working together to offer baby food making workshops.
Once a month, we will meet at Servings in Spruce Grove to offer a brief discussion and then let you make a variety of food for your family.
Not only will you get to make 18 4oz jars of food for your baby, you can make 6 delicious dinners for the rest of your family as well.
Mothers Embraced Sharing Circles - Starting March 2012!
We will soon be launching our new 6 week mom groups. Facilitated by a Registered Nurse, these groups will provide a safe place to share, connect, and learn with other moms. Whether you are a new mom or have been mothering for years, these open and honest groups will provide you with an opportunity to feel supported and nurtured in the most important role of your life.
