Thank you!!!!

for all the messages
the love
the support
for showing up

Thank you for coming out and supporting us as we ended something that was so special to so many

The decision to close did not come easily

This weekend our hearts filled as clients poured in and took a little piece of Tourmaline home

It was so nice to see each one of you
To witness how much your babies and families have grown
to reconnect
reminisce
remember

We got the sweetest message today
Seeing this lil’ Tourmaline peanut chillin’ in the swing that so many people, families and babies enjoyed fills our hearts

We felt so much love as we ran around this last weekend
seeing old friends
meeting new ones
selling
working
cleaning
crying
laughing
it was a little bit of everything
just like labor

Now I guess we are postpartum

bodies sore
sleep deprived
recovering
resting
second guessing ourselves a little
nourishing ourselves
life will never be the same
we will never be the same
moving slowly in this new world
with a new knowing and understanding
A world without Tourmaline

moments of relief,
followed by deep sadness
and so much gratitude

Thank you!

We would love to see what you have done with the pieces of Tourmaline you took home with you

In your homes or spaces

Please share and tag us if you are called too!

Also, we have your pictures and will start sending them out after the holidays. If your address has changed please DM us!

Love you all so much!!!!

Labor Day is more than a day off—it reminds us of the power found in the act of labor: in the daily work that shapes families, builds communities, and creates life.

As a midwifery birth center, we see labor as both a physical and transformative journey. Today, we honor all the labor—birth, care, growth, and support—that form the foundations of humanity.

From our team to our community: this day is dedicated to the patience, courage, and strength you show every day. Happy Labor Day!

Think tailored nutrition, gentle movement, emotional support, and rest as intentional practices—not just self-care, but love you can give yourself.

Why it matters: Experts agree postpartum care should be ongoing—not a single check-in. Researchers also affirm that intentional self-care in the early postpartum period—encompassing mindfulness, nutrition, and connection—significantly enhances mental well-being and overall recovery.

This plan combines your body’s wisdom with compassionate science.

Skin-to-skin doesn’t belong to mothers alone.

When fathers and non-birthing partners hold their newborns close, it fosters bonding, reduces stress, and nurtures emotional confidence for both the baby and the parent.

After bringing new life into the world, your own needs matter just as much as your baby's. Our latest guide, "The Essential Postpartum Care Checklist for New Moms," walks you through comfort items, self-care rituals, emotional support strategies, and health reminders. Everything you need to feel seen, respected, and cared for in those early days.

Because postpartum isn't just recovery—it's an art of honoring your strength, vulnerability, and evolving story.
