Looking forward to visiting the Mayo Mom & Baby group tomorrow, 4/30 at 10am!💗

We’ve been SO looking forward to this one…

Emily Sustar from The Motherhood Collective is joining us TOMORROW (4/30) for some (very) gentle movement and infant massage.

10am, Mayo La Crosse Hospital 6th Floor Lounge…come as you are and late is just fine 😉.

You deserve ALL the support you can get during this wild thing called postpartum, and The Motherhood Collective is another invaluable resource for us in the La Crosse area. We are so fortunate to have it!

In addition to joining us tomorrow, check out their Baby + Me Yoga (so fun) on Friday mornings and their monthly Friday support group.

(give this post a little love/comment so more people can see it, thanks!)

Exciting news!🤩

Kate Ailabouni, RN, CBS is joining TMC team to help Emily Sustar (owner/ teacher) teach our Empowered Birth Childbirth Preparation Class Series!

Kate will be teaching our Lactation Basics class (week 4 of the Empowered Birth series).

Here’s more about Kate:

Kate (she/her) is a Registered Nurse and Certified Breastfeeding Specialist. After the birth of her first child, she chased a wild dream to pivot from her career in the arts to become a lactation nurse. She worked for three years as a labor and delivery/postpartum nurse before transitioning to full time lactation care in 2024. She currently practices at Mayo Clinic in La Crosse. 

Kate is mom to three delightful humans and is grateful for all the lactation wisdom they taught her over their cumulative 50 months (and counting) of not-always-easy breastfeeding.

We our so grateful to have her expertise to help prepare you for a smoother breastfeeding experience & postpartum!❤️

Our Spring Empowered Birth Series is FULL but stay tuned for summer dates & check out our story for this week’s schedule.🌷

✨Testimonial✨

“Everything I had prepared for came together in the most empowering way. I have to give so much credit to Emily and Erin and the strategies they taught me in their Empowered Birth Childbirth Preparation course. The tools, the mindset shifts, the confidence they instilled in me helped me reach my goal of delivering my baby without an epidural. I felt strong, present, and powerful.” - Holly

So grateful for these generous words & so grateful for this mama, who is a generous spirit & who has been a part of our community since the birth of her first child. Grateful for the ways motherhood transforms us & brings so many of us together.❤️

Happy International Women’s Day!

Everyday is Women’s Day at .  We are a small, woman owned and operated business.  We’ve had many women share space and offer various classes at The Motherhood Collective over the years, but our owner is Emily Sustar, a mom of three, who was inspired to create community and more support for women as they enter into parenthood. 

Our mission is to serve and support women in the perinatal transition.  The vast majority of our student population is women.  The small businesses and individuals we choose to collaborate with are also women owned and operated.  

Here’s what we believe:
* Women matter 
* We believe the voices and experiences of women 
* Women deserve to be seen, understood and supported
* Women deserve better care in the perinatal transition
* Women need community and support in the perinatal transition (and in all stages of life and parenthood!) 
* Women are incredibly strong and badass, but they don’t have to shoulder the weight of the world on their own! 

If this resonates with you, join us for intentional community. Share with a woman you admire.❤️
