What a beautiful turnout today for our August M.A.M.A. Meetup: Little Smiles, Big Care! š
Community is truly something specialāwe werenāt meant to do this motherhood journey alone. The conversation was rich and engaging. We learned that oral care starts as early as in utero, that caring for our own health as mamas is key, and we got some helpful tips for brushing our kiddosā teeth (even when theyāre being a little stubborn š
). We also got all our questions answered about tongue ties and oral restrictionsāsuch an important and often overlooked topic!
It was especially heartwarming to see some of my past doula clients and ādoula babiesā I havenāt seen in a year or twoāand even one of my former lactation clients came out! When you provide care with intention and heart, people remember. š
Huge thanks to Dr. Anamelechi for hosting us and sharing her expertise in such a warm, family-friendly space. The Thrive House, tucked in the heart of NE DC, was the perfect venue to connect, learn, and play.
Special shout-out to one of our Board Members who came out and brought along another mama and her little onesāthank you for actively helping us build community, one connection at a time! šš¾
We host these M.A.M.A. Meetups every month, so be sure to like and follow to stay in the loop for future gatherings, workshops, and community events.
We learned a lot, the kiddos had fun, and the photos captured the joy and memories.
