Expecting your first baby and wondering how dads can bond with their newborn? 🤍

From talking to your baby during pregnancy to those first skin-to-skin cuddles, dads play a vital role in early bonding. Babywearing is a great way for dads to connect, soothe, and support their little one right from the start.

At Rooted Family Wellness Centre in Ottawa, our parenting classes offer hands-on support for new parents, including babywearing tips and bonding activities for dads.

If you’re a first-time dad or parent looking for real-life guidance and community, our classes are here for you. You don’t have to figure it out alone.

Before opening Rooted Family Wellness Centre, Erin and Christine were Birth Companion Volunteers at Mothercraft Ottawa. It's a program that supports families in Ottawa with one-on-one prenatal, birth, and parenting care, and is still close to our hearts.

This Christmas, you can help us give back to families in need.

Here’s how it works:

1. Choose an ornament from our Giving Tree at Rooted

2. Shop for the gift on the card at any store you choose

3. Return the unwrapped gift to Rooted and place it under our tree

4. Keep the ornament for your own tree, as a reminder of your generosity

Every gift goes directly to a local family through the Birth Companion Volunteer Program, which matches volunteer doulas with families and provides essentials at no cost.

If you want to help but can't make it to our centre, you can send monetary donations here:

Together, we can brighten the holidays for Ottawa families. 🎄✨

We did it! 🎉
Our first clothing swap was a success, and we're so grateful to everyone who made it happen.

Thank you to our business partners for their support and generous donations. Thank you to the families who cleaned out closets and brought in donations. Thank you to our team for your help in organizing and putting this together. And thank you to everyone who came, shopped, connected, and made the whole day feel like one big gathering.

We're so grateful we could collect donations for Mothercraft and Youville through this event.

Watching the village come together was exactly what we hoped for.

Thank you for being part of this 💚

Pop quiz: A stranger asks to touch your baby. What do you say? 🤔

We made this one funny, but in all seriousness: if you feel even a little hesitant about someone touching or holding your baby, it's completely okay to just say no.

No explanation needed. No polite excuse required. Just a simple, clear boundary.

You're not being rude. You're not overreacting. You're protecting your baby and trusting your gut, and that's exactly what you're supposed to do.

Cold and flu season or not, your comfort matters. Your baby's safety matters. And "no thank you" is always a full sentence.

The lactation cookie recipe you've been waiting for. 🍪

Our holistic nutritionist (and breastfeeding mama) just dropped her go-to recipe, and it's nothing like the overly sweet versions you'll find online.

These are made with real ingredients that actually support your milk supply. Moringa powder, ginger, oats, dates, and seed butter. No processed sugar or refined oils. Just wholesome fuel that tastes incredible.

The moringa used in this recipe comes from , a small business based right here in Ottawa.

They're so good you'll forget they're doing something for you.

Want the recipe? Comment COOKIES and we'll send it straight to your DMs.

There's no magic sleep secret, but there IS support that actually works.

Our Gentle Sleep Consultant helps you understand what's normal for your baby's developmental stage, tackles your specific challenges, and gives you a personalized plan that fits your unique family.

No cry-it-out. No judgment. Just gentle, evidence-based strategies.

Book in-clinic, in-home (Kanata to Orleans, Russell, Embrun, Limoges), or virtual sessions. And if you have Social Work coverage, your fees might be covered under the parent's or child's name (please check your policy for details).

The real secret? You don't have to figure this out alone. We're here.
