There are so many things that soon-to-be parents have to learn about and prepare for, and you might find yourself settling with the first “right answer” you come across. When it comes to pregnancy, birth, and life with a baby, we’re firm believers that there’s always more than one right answer and the “best way” looks a little different for everyone. We exist to help you understand what to expect, make you aware of what your options are, give you the confidence to choose and advocate for what’s best for you and your baby.

When you’re expecting, it easy to become caught up in the more exciting aspects of pregnancy, like building a registry and preparing the nursery. While those are important, and we love providing you with valuable insights and connections to brands and products you might never knew existed, your preparation – and our work – doesn’t stop there. We build on the information you might have gotten elsewhere and connect you to experts and each other to make sure you’re mentally, emotionally and physically prepared for pregnancy and birth – and that you have a support network in place before you need it.

We host virtual events throughout year – most of which are complementary – that help you learn what you didn’t know you didn’t know. These include national experts and local providers like doulas, pediatricians, midwives, prenatal chiropractors, lactation consultants, homeopathic care practitioners, and more. They’ll help you make decisions related to having a healthy and comfortable pregnancy and writing a birth plan that’s best for you and baby. We also hold a number of signature in-person events in select cities with seminars, demonstrations, and (of course) great gift bags and prizes. In addition to experts and providers, we connect you to brands and great insights about their products. Whether you’re looking for convenience or luxury, expect to find options you never knew existed and make smart decisions about what you buy.
