Are you an expectant parent filled with both excitement and apprehension about the upcoming arrival of your little one? Do you worry about navigating the physical and emotional changes of postpartum recovery? If so, this comprehensive postpartum planning class is designed to help you confidently embrace this transformative phase of your life.


During pregnancy, we are so focused on the birth itself that not much thought goes into what would come after - POSTPARTUM. The postpartum period is a time of immense change and challenge, both physically and emotionally. That's why this class was created! We want you to THRIVE in parenthood, not just survive it.


Meticulously crafted to provide you with the knowledge and strategies you need to:

Realistic expectations: I’ll go over postpartum education, setting you up for a realistic understanding of what to expect.

Physical recovery: Learn about common postpartum changes, healing timelines, and effective strategies for promoting physical comfort and well-being.

Emotional wellness: Explore topics like managing mood swings, building resilience, and prioritizing self-care in the midst of new parenthood.

Building a support network: Discover the importance of creating a strong village around you, learn how to effectively delegate tasks, and identify valuable resources in your community.

Creating a postpartum plan: We'll walk you through the process of crafting a personalized roadmap for your fourth trimester, ensuring your needs and priorities are met.
