We've got a great office space opening up in our ABB HQ ☀️

This office is located within our ABB office space on N. Arthur Ashe Blvd. Less than a block from and walking distance to all the amenities of it doesn't get more Museum District than this!

There's a beautifully styled shared waiting area and co-working space, 2 bathrooms for you and clients, shared kitchenette for tenants, off street parking, and high speed internet and utilities included.

This space will be available April 1 and would be perfect as a quiet office away from home, a place for meeting with a business partner, a space for 1-on-1 bodywork, counseling, therapies - and more!

Send us a DM if you're interested in learning more or visiting the space!✨

We are so excited to welcome Tory to the ABB Collective!

LaTory Whitney, Ms. Tory, is a gentle sleep consultant and newborn care specialist with over 30 years of childcare experience and 7+ years supporting families in the perinatal space:
Her work is rooted in a regulation-first approach to infant sleep, recognizing that rest is a byproduct of nervous-system safety, not force or rigid training. Specializing in supporting sensitive babies, exhausted parents, and families navigating frequent wakings, contact sleep, and early postpartum transitions.
Tory can offer virtual sleep guidance as well as overnight newborn care, blending practical structure with intuitive, responsive support so families feel confident, calm, and deeply supported.

Birth + Postpartum circle is Tuesday:
2/3 | 9-11am | in our beautiful + cozy space within the Branch Museum: 2501 Monument Ave

10 Moons + Around the Sun is our free monthly support circle open to all! Pregnant folks and postpartum folks are encouraged to join each month! It doesn’t matter who your provider is, where you’re planning to deliver, how your birth went, who your doula is - anyone looking for community + connection during their pregnancy and postpartum period: this is for you! We know the benefits of hearing birth stories during the prenatal period and also what comfort gleaning insight from folks in similar seasons of life can bring so we hope you’ll come share with us!

The lovely Maria Adley will be facilitating the circle, but this space is yours! Bring your questions, bring your worries, bring your baby + a friend and join us monthly in this safe space to talk all things parenting, share birth stories, ask labor questions, decode infant feeding + sleeping, navigating boundaries, self-care techniques and more while being surrounded by love + support. We’ll also provide light refreshments, coffee + tea.

The Circle is reoccurring, the first Tuesday of each month, next Circle will be: Tuesday March 3, 2026

🌙See you there!☀️

The early days of your baby’s life are also worth remembering. Newborn photos don’t always have to be taken at home - they can be created at the hospital within the first 48 hours after birth.

These days are so real and so full of emotion. This is truly documentary photography - capturing quiet moments at the hospital, family visits, and those hours before you get to go home together.

These moments are incredibly special and will never repeat themselves in quite the same way. They are the kind of memories you’ll want to keep, always.

I’d be happy to capture these memories for you. Contact me to discuss the details. Link in bio.

Pro tip: the best time to book your newborn session is actually while you're still pregnant—those first two weeks go by insanely fast and booking ahead takes one thing off your plate when baby arrives.

I always leave flexibility in the schedule because babies don't exactly follow our timelines, but securing your spot early means you won't miss that tiny, curled-up phase.

Don’t forget to book your in home appointment for a weight check before your pediatrician appointment!

Even if things are going well with breastfeeding, touching base with me prior to that 2, 4, or 6 month well check will ensure you go into that pediatrician appointment with a plan and confidence!
