0 Comments

 
I am pretty darn excited to be part of this special event! On March 30th you will find us nestled in at the stunning Cheakamus Center preparing growing families to thrive through comprehensive workshops, building community and celebration with nourishing food! 

Glow is a prenatal day retreat set in an ancient cedar rainforest, aimed at: 

- Empowering and Inspiring confidence in expectant women and couples, 
- Guiding women and couples in creating personalized family plans to THRIVE into the "4th trimester"
- Reclaiming birth as a sacred ceremony and celebration; dispelling fear and embracing trust
- Celebrating life, birth, family and community.
​
We will explore everything no one tells you about having a baby, including such topics as sleep, returning to intimacy, taking maternity leave, proper self care, baby care basics and more. Think beyond birth and prepare for the lifetime that follows it.
​
Glow is an inclusive space.  All genders and gender expressions are welcome.  All variety of family types are welcome.

Wow! I cannot thank you all enough! With the support from Squamish Hospital Foundation, Vairdy Photography, This is Beauty-AnnaMarie, Grinning Weasel Photography, Squamish Savings, and all the individual folks who supported this fundraiser directly or through one of our events...THANK YOU SO MUCH! THE PUMP HAS ARRIVED! 

It was no small feat! With a good dose of patience and support from Roots Community Midwives, Dr. Kim MacDonald our local OB-GYN, Mountain Maternity and nearly every OB nurse at SGH, there is now a brand new Medela Symphony Plus and trolley at Squamish General Hospital! Seeing first hand how quickly this community is growing, I knew we needed another pump and I am incredibly humbled and grateful to have made it happen!

We did it! A great big THANK YOU! to all the families who came out for our Family Mini Sessions event! We reached our goal for this event and are now well over halfway to reaching the grand total for the fundraiser. With the talents of Vairdy Photography, the day was full of giggles and tickles and of course, beautiful captures, I am very grateful for Vairdy's support. I would also like to thank Rosie from Norman Rudy's for her support and letting us take over the Clubhouse for a day. It's heartwarming to see our community really get behind this initiative and support my effort to get this second breast pump into SGH as soon as possible! We're so close now!

Transitions Essentials Kits

3/19/2018

0 Comments

 
When a past client comes up with a great idea to support other new parents, I am ALL IN! This particular idea not only supports new families, it also supports women-owned businesses that have a social impact, what's not to love?! These transitions kits make a great gift for yourself or anyone new to parenting. But make sure you contact me for a promo code before you place your order because Loretta is extending some love for my  clients!

​

Here's what Loretta wants you to know about these kits...

Transition Essentials was created as a way of providing people with tangible self-care resources while going through a major transition in their lives.

Each kit is curated with products made by women owned businesses that have a social impact. Whether it’s an education initiative in Ghana they are contributing to, partnering with young female entrepreneurs in Uganda or offering leadership programming to young women globally, these business women are on a mission to make the world a better place for everyone. Their products are ethical and made with care.
The kits are curated with a lot of thought. We do this to ensure you are getting useful products with minimal waste. All our box fillers are made of recycled paper (we ditched the plastic!) and there is no unnecessary wrapping. We also do our best to reduce overhead so we can keep the prices reasonable and not cut down on the quality.
In each box you’ll learn a little about the entrepreneurs behind the products and receive gift codes if you want to purchase more later on.

Curious about Midwives?!

12/4/2017

0 Comments

 
Before we were even pregnant with our first, I dragged my husband to a Midwifery Info Night in Vancouver. He obliged, as the partner of a fresh newly trained Doula, and was curious to find out what midwives do and how they support families. He was blown away by the amount of information we left with. If you are expecting, or plan to in the future, I would highly encourage you to start gathering information from care providers now. Our local midwives, Roots Community Midwives, are holding an information night and will be happy to answer all your questions about midwifery care. Join the midwives on December 13th at 7pm, 210-38026 Second Ave. (Grinning Weasel Photography Studio). RSVP to rootsadmin@rootsmidwives.ca
