As you make space in your arms and in your heart for the arrival of your baby, it is normal and understandable for your tremendous joy and excitement to be accompanied by questions and doubts about how you will give birth to an entire person, feed them, and give them the best care possible. We're here to answer questions and give you information so you can make informed decisions about how you birth, how you begin parenting, and the products you want to use.

Rentals
There are some things you don't need forever. We rent out TENS machines, birth tubs, breast pumps and more - just for the time you need them.
Babywearing
The practice of baby wearing is timeless. For centuries, families have been carrying their babies since birth. Benefits of baby wearing include positive attachment and physical and emotional regulation. In addition to these, the practical ability to use both hands to complete a task with a little one in tow encourage families to continue this tradition.
We offer consultations to families looking to purchase or learn how to use a baby carrier.
Diapering
How do you want to diaper your baby? Cloth or compostable? What's the impact to the environment, and what works for your family? What about the centuries-old technique of Elimination Communication?
We have the products and classes you need to figure out the right path for you.
