Last Friday, our Community Maternal Health Care (CMHC) Program brought together our moms-to-be for a Maternal Care Celebration — one of our seasonal community baby showers.

The event featured educational presentations from the care team, including our dietitian, doula, and case manager, giving moms the information and resources they need before their little one arrives. It was also a chance for parents to connect with others in the community, share the moment, and enjoy some baby shower games and a catered lunch.

Every mom left with essential supplies — diaper bags, diapers, baby wipes, breast pumps, post-partum kits, and pacifiers.

This is what whole-person care looks like at Mile Square.
