Mamas Circle - Weekend Edition
|
Life has gotten busy and you and dearly miss connecting with other mamas. Join us for the Mamas Circle - Weekend Edition cohort starting in January 2019. We'll have a monthly meeting for moms of 6-18 month olds to gather, take part in facilitated conversations about motherhood, and embrace the baby chaos. Moms make a 3-month commitment so we can have a consistent group, get to know each other, and make real connections and friendships that are so important during this time in our lives.

Please note: UP is not handicapped accessible - there is a long flight of stairs to get up to the studio. Moms should plan to attend with their babies/toddlers 18 months old and under. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate older siblings at this time. Join our mailing list as we are looking to add weekend options that will include older children later in 2019.

No topic is sacred within the confines of Mamas Circle. This is a circle of intimacy, support, humor and honesty. And I have relied on these other new mothers to help me see things in the right light, to find answers to things like an incessant diaper rash, and to keep moving forward through the haze of the first few months. I’m happy just to be in the same room with these women, their babies and our fellow mom and guide, Elizabeth.

It was a wonderful experience; thank you for facilitating Elizabeth! Your depth of knowledge and pragmatic philosophy were super helpful for me too. Even as a second time mom, I have some of the same challenges where I could use a new perspective, but also many new ones to navigate and sort out.

My daughter just turned one and I am still in touch with several moms and babies from Mamas Circle. I liked it so well that I did a second session of it, and it was a super helpful way to commiserate with and learn from other women, make friends, and become confident in my own parenting, such that I could give advice to other new moms. It was also an excellent way to get out of the house in the early weeks.

I always wanted to join a group after I had baby so that I could meet other moms going through the same thing. My sister always told me to have a supportive network because you can't do it alone. I love Mamas Circle! It is just what I was looking for: a safe, kind, and supportive group to get me through the first couple of months of being a new mom. I look forward to seeing Elizabeth and all the moms and babies every week!

I love Mamas Circle. It allowed me to stay in touch with my wonderful friends from prenatal yoga, meet their new babies, share birth stories, and see them become moms at the same time as me. I felt safe and comfortable sharing the joy and the craziness of being a mother. So many doubts, so many questions... Mamas Circle is the place to find answers and feel better about ourselves.
