* You deserve space to process WTF just happened to you.

Join us as we dive into the powerful connection between your mind and body during labor and the transformative impact of breath work. Don't miss out on this opportunity to learn how you can empower yourself during your journey through pregnancy and parenthood.

Breathwork is a powerful tool for tapping into our body's inner strength and resilience, and it can be particularly helpful during labor.

I want Logan to develop a life-long love of nature and the outdoors so we OUTSIDE! Daycares and schools are closed today due to Tropical Storm Nicole, but the learning don’t stop! 🍂🍂🍂

I’m a certified Birth Doula…AND I majored in Human Development & Family Science at The Ohio State University. Over the last decade, I’ve worked in daycares, elementary schools, middle schools, and even taught one year of high school. I’m passionate about showing parents how fun, easy, and FREE it can be to have meaningful learning experiences at home.

It’s never too early to expose your child to nature. Yup, even infants and toddlers can play and learn in nature. Logan was touching tree bark and hearing me discuss smooth and rough textures before she could walk and talk. Nature offers opportunities to engage the five senses, talk about textures, use gross and fine motor skills and SO much more!

Today Logan used hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills to grasp different objects in the yard. Touching prickly acorns, hearing raindrops, and feeling the wind activated a few of her senses. Then, she picked up a leaf and said “Yellow!” so I encouraged her to find something green as well. She’s been interested in acorns lately so she easily found something brown. We went inside to collect, sort, and compare our items.
