Join us for our outdoor playgroup, Monday, January 26th at Mautino Park from 10-11:30am

Meet us in the grass, on the left side just after the entrance of the park, before the main parking lot (swipe for map). There's no bad weather, only bad clothes for adventures. That said, we will cancel the park play if there is too much sogginess. Please check back for updates.

All Nest Families welcome! All ages!

Provider Spotlight
Leslie Stager RN, LMT

Since 1992, I have practiced and taught bodywork devoted to supporting women through pregnancy, birth, and the profound transition that follows. Decades of work and thousands of women have shown me how deeply motherhood reshapes identity, body awareness, relationships, and one’s sense of self. This initiation is powerful and demanding, often leaving us changed in ways that go unacknowledged or unnamed. My work honors this passage with reverence, skill, and deep listening.

Blending Holistic Pelvic Care™, Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Massage, intuitive attunement, and 35 years of experience as a bodyworker, labor & delivery nurse, and doula, I offer sessions that support women through the full cycles of fertility, pregnancy, birth preparation/induction, postnatal recovery, and menopause.

Sessions may include gentle abdominal and internal pelvic floor bodywork, breathing, and collaborative attunement to help release physical and emotional scar tissue, nourish and realign the womb and organs, and restore pelvic balance.

After birth, I can address diastasis recti, cesarean and other scar tissue, support pelvic stability, and encourage general recovery after birth. Safely explore birth challenges, pain, low libido, incontinence, prolapse, and pelvic discomfort, while slowing down, listening deeply, and remembering your Self—reclaiming your body with renewed vitality, wisdom, and possibility.

The Nest is moving into a brand-new home! ✨

Our new classroom is located right in downtown Grass Valley at 156 S. Auburn Street, and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome you. All Nest classes will now be held in this cozy new space (or in our virtual classroom), creating even more opportunities to connect, learn, and grow together.

This new home will also be a place for the wider community, opening its doors to support groups and classes that nurture families and caregivers.

We are deeply grateful for the generosity of our community that made this move possible. Thanks to your support, we’re able to once again afford a space of our own. Thank you to everyone who has helped feather our Nest 💛

If you’d still like to be part of this exciting next chapter, our End-of-Year Giving Campaign is still live. Every donation helps us furnish and prepare our new space so it’s warm, welcoming, and ready for our families. https://buff.ly/mHU9xs7
