The Birthworkers. The home care visitors. The community builders and leaders of baby groups. The neighbor who shows up with a casserole.
The aunty who cuddles the newborn so a parent can sleep.
The grandparents who’ll fold laundry or babysit. The BFF who researches the best breast pumps. The co-workers who organize a meal train or a baby shower.
The lactation consultant who helps the baby latch, finally.
This is for you, the daily heroes already tending the village: Your support makes all of us stronger.
We’ve got some more professional resources for you! A free online network with resources, courses, workshops and tools so you can show up for your community.
And it’s for those of you ready to get started tending your village.
We’ve got kits, guides, and courses that can help you do everything from throwing a
brilliant baby shower to interrupting harmful narratives impacting new parents to creating more community with parent and baby groups.
…so you can be even more of a champion for the people you love.
Because showing up for each other is a skill.
Let’s skill-up and tend the village together.

Client Love
The Postpartum Community Care model feels like a much needed balm for a culture that places undue value on individualism and consumerism that can leave new mothers feeling isolated and overwhelmed. Drawing on the wisdom of others in the community and creating an intergenerational group for parents and babies to gather, share, and create feels essential in creating true community. I have so appreciated this training and it's offerings. I am completely inspired to bring what I have learned here into my own community and now I feel confident that I have the tools to do so successfully!
