"From the first week I was able to see what a difference it made in terms of getting through an overwhelming, confusing time with more confidence."


"When the internet and family advice left me in doubt, I knew I could come to this group and hear personalized information that made sense for my family."


"From discussing in-laws to the witching hour to guilt to pumping to contraception, this group helped me feel safe to deal with the big and little things on my mind."


"Having a newborn is exciting, amazing and unnerving all at the same time. Meredith created a safe and welcoming space for us to talk about everything and anything that was on our minds as new mothers. We talked about fussiness, sleep, the challenges of recovering from the childbirth while simultaneously trying to fulfill this new role and lots of other topics. I looked forward to our meetings every week and always left feeling understood."


"All my questions and concerns were addressed from week to week, and for the ones I was too nervous to ask out loud, Vanessa made sure we dealt with them."


"We were always encouraged to be real and honest, to come as we were, no matter what. I often showed up unshowered, in my yoga pants, vulnerable and tired, and left feeling rejuvenated."


"I'm so glad I invested in the support group. I picked up quite a few useful tips and techniques, but the best part for me was just having a pleasant, stress-free social activity to look forward to each week. Vanessa sets a very warm and genuine tone for the group."


"The group was more than a reason to leave my apartment every week...It was a place where I learned to realize, under the friendly and knowledgeable guidance of Meredith, that I wasn't alone in this new and sometimes overwhelming journey of becoming a mother. I looked forward to our weekly meetings as a time to socialize, brainstorm the challenges we all faced, and celebrate milestones - not just of my baby's, but mine too! Even now, I continue to meet up with the other moms I met, and I'm thankful I could start building a new circle of friends because of this group."
