BeHeld New Parents Group
BeHeld New Parents Group
Join Beth Scheppke and me, facilitators who've supported hundreds of families through their births & postpartum journeys as we create space for juicy conversations and community building during your postpartum time. We are doulas, lactation counselors…and I am a mom (twice over). Sarah-Grace Sweeney is the brainchild behind Beheld but she is off becoming a midwife (!!) so Beth and I are continuing on in her absence.
This 6-week virtual support group meets once a week in the mornings. Each week is (very loosely) themed so we have a jumping off point for our conversations. We talk about lactation & feeding, baby developmental milestones, sleep woes, postpartum recovery & being at home in your body again, finding childcare, navigating new relationship dynamics with partners and family, and birth stories. Generally speaking, group is geared for parents 0-4 months postpartum, but we aren’t strict about it either.
We’ve set a suggested price of $150 for all six weeks, but you are free to pay any amount that’s comfortable and doable for you. We won’t turn anyone away based on ability to pay.
Weekly Topics:
Week 1: Birth Story Sharing/Processing
Week 2: Feeding, Sleep, & Baby Development
Week 3: Postpartum Body Image & Wellness
Week 4: Postpartum Intimacy
Week 5: Friendship & Family Dynamics
Week 6: Beyond the 4th Trimester (work, childcare, you name it)
