Led by Hannah Salt, mom of 3 with over five years experience breastfeeding and in training with Le Leche League Canada to offer families the opportunity to connect and learn to breast/body/chestfeed their little ones alongside one another. No struggle required to join. simply looking for likeminded folks to be with in the middle of your week? This space is for you.

Led by Heather Jones, registered labour and delivery nurse + board certified lactation consultant. Ask an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) your questions as you navigate feeding your little one.

We welcome anyone who is pregnant, nursing, hand expressing, exclusively pumping, combination feeding, formula feeding, providing their milk or donor milk for a child, or striving to do so. Babes and children who are feeding are welcome, older siblings can be accommodated.

led by Courtney Jenkins, doula + childbirth educator.

Support your body’s natural rhythm of labour, even in rest, with intentional positioning.  Epidurals are a supportive tool in some labours, but can also slow down progression when aspects of physiological labour are overlooked. Learn active and upright positioning to help bring baby down and push more effectively- increasing the likelihood of a more efficient, faster and a safer birth for you and baby. Gain an understanding of the epidural, and the procedure to support your informed decision making. 

siblings welcome if needed.

- the understanding of your baby's unique languages and cues

- better, longer sleep for your baby

- the ease of baby's gas and colic pain

- the relief of growing pains and muscular tension

- the stimulation of baby's neurological development

- overall health and well-being of your baby

- babies ability to regulate and fall asleep, and sleeping longer

AND SO MUCH MORE.

The technique is easy and only requires 15-20 minutes a day once you practice it, with a world of benefits for you and your baby. I would love to see you there.

please note: this class is open to one or both parents/caretakers but baby must also be present (if you are currently pregnant, let’s chat about how you can join us).

A love day treat for you from us. Courtney; doula, Jess; psychotherapist, Shelby; acupuncturist, and Akansha; ayurvedic practitioner, have partnered to create a day all about honouring you and creating a warm and healing environment for you in the cold of winter.

Our focus? Mom rage and burnout, which often grows from the soil of carrying too much, for too long. They are not flaws or failure to fix, but emotions asking to be heard. In this space, nothing needs to be hidden or judged. You are invited to slow down, soften, and explore these feelings with safety, support, and compassion. 

Honour yourself  through conversations of connection and solidarity, gain psychotherapist recommended tools and supports for this very real experience, enjoy a cozy meal and your choice of a head + face + shoulder massage or leg + foot massage. Community is the kind of deep self care that sticks with you, treat yourself and know you are loved.

Please email with dietary restriction accommodations.

The perinatal era, from fertility through to postpartum, is almost exclusively marketed as a time of joy and celebration. But what about when it isn't? What happens when we have to face death, infertility, miscarriage and loss in all of its forms? 

What if the perinatal era is actually steeped in sorrow, in grief, in disappointment. And what about the anger, the loneliness and the fear? Though rarely acknowledged these are very real and present emotions that deserve to be here too. 

You don't need to make your story smaller or quieter to uphold society's expectations; it isn't just about joy and celebration there is so much more here. Come have your voice heard, come be seen and validated in the fullness of this. We're here and we are listening.

Led by doula Courtney Jenkins, fertility specialist Sophie Goutos, and Jess Golle Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying).

This workshop for parents was developed by Evidence Based Birth® to give you and your birth partner the confidence and know-how you need to have a more positive, empowering experience in the birthing room. You might have questions like: How do I know if my wishes will be respected? Will my birth plan be followed? You will discover strategies for asking the right questions, and you’ll get the inside scoop on how to stack the odds in your favour of having a positive birth. We’ll talk about how to form the ultimate birth team, so when the time comes to bring your baby into the world you can find yourself at the center of respectful, evidence-based care. One ticket per family, doulas welcome with their client!

Parenthood can be too much and the anger, resentment, and burnout can feel heavy and isolating. ‘Mom rage’ and burnout, which often grows from the soil of carrying too much, for too long. They are not flaws or failure to fix, but emotions asking to be heard. In this space, nothing needs to be hidden or judged. You are invited to slow down, soften, and explore these feelings with safety, support, and compassion with Jess Golle, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying).

Together, we’ll share experiences, learn practical coping tools, and gain new perspectives in a supportive and safe space. Group therapy is a more affordable way to access support and can be incredibly powerful in reducing isolation, building connection, and creating gentle accountability as you move toward feeling more grounded and supported. Whether you go to therapy regularly and are looking to build community or you are new to therapy this space is for you.

We will meet on Tuesdays for 4 weeks, from 6-7pm on February 10, 17, 24, and March 3.

Birth and reproductive trauma can be profoundly isolating.

For many, the most painful part was not only what happened, but how alone you felt while it was happening. Even if you weren't physically alone, no one could fully witness your fear, your pain, or your reality. You survived something overwhelming, and then carried it by yourself long after it ended.

That kind of aloneness can linger. It can shape the story your body tells and the memories that return again and again.

This monthly group is a gentle, supportive space to come together with others who understand. A place to be witnessed, believed, and held with care. Together, we share stories, tend to your nervous system, and make room for the weight of what you have carried.

Here, you do not have to hold it alone.

Here, we lean into the safety of shared humanity.

Here, the aloneness begins to soften.

Led by doula Courtney Jenkins and Jess Golle Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying).

Mothering you, offers monthly chats for deep self care with registered acupuncturist, Shelby Seegmiller. This month we will focus on warming from the centre, from a Traditional Chinese Medicine lens. Supporting seasonal affective moods, relieving tension, warming the body and supporting your body in feeling better in the colder months. This offering is open to everyone, littles are welcome.

Parenthood can be too much and the anger, resentment, and burnout can feel heavy and isolating. ‘Mom rage’ and burnout, which often grows from the soil of carrying too much, for too long.

When a child's nervous system is activated it can be really loud and wildly overstimulating! It can also be surprisingly quiet and unnerving. Regardless of how it manifests, a dysregulated nervous system often feels chaotic for everyone involved. 

What if you could remain the calm in that chaos? Not just for them, but also for you. 

Come explore nervous system regulation translated to practical, everyday skills. Let's choose steadiness over suppression, honesty over perfection and self-compassion over impossible expectations.

Parenthood can be too much and the anger, resentment, and burnout can feel heavy and isolating. ‘Mom rage’ and burnout, which often grows from the soil of carrying too much, for too long.

The perinatal era, from fertility through to postpartum, is almost exclusively marketed as a time of joy and celebration. But what about when it isn't? What happens when we have to face death, infertility, miscarriage and loss in all of its forms? 

What if the perinatal era is actually steeped in sorrow, in grief, in disappointment. And what about the anger, the loneliness and the fear? Though rarely acknowledged these are very real and present emotions that deserve to be here too. 

You don't need to make your story smaller or quieter to uphold society's expectations; it isn't just about joy and celebration there is so much more here. Come have your voice heard, come be seen and validated in the fullness of this. We're here and we are listening.

Birth and reproductive trauma can be profoundly isolating.

For many, the most painful part was not only what happened, but how alone you felt while it was happening. Even if you weren't physically alone, no one could fully witness your fear, your pain, or your reality. You survived something overwhelming, and then carried it by yourself long after it ended.

That kind of aloneness can linger. It can shape the story your body tells and the memories that return again and again.

This monthly group is a gentle, supportive space to come together with others who understand. A place to be witnessed, believed, and held with care. Together, we share stories, tend to your nervous system, and make room for the weight of what you have carried.

Here, you do not have to hold it alone.

Here, we lean into the safety of shared humanity.

Here, the aloneness begins to soften.
