'A Living Family' is 2 mamas (and their husbands and children) providing support in PA and now NJ for natural, traditional and gentle parenting ideas and practices. Our foundation is trust: in our bodies, our intuition and our children.
At our Meetups we discuss topics of interest: informed/natural/home birth, breastfeeding and bottle-feeding with love and respect, baby-led solids and child-led weaning, babywearing, gentle discipline, alternative schooling (Montessori, Waldorf, RIE, Reggio-Emilia, forest schools, Sudbury/democratic, homeschooling, unschooling), healthful eating, holistic health and medicine (whole/organic foods, supplements, herbs, homeopathy, essential oils, chiropractic, acupuncture), informed vaccination choice, equally shared parenting, creating a simple lifestyle, radical homemaking (including handwork/crafting), and Earth-conscious living.
Our goals are:
To help and support expectant parents and all caregivers inform and empower themselves
To provide information and connections to resources
To create community and foster relationships among families
Please let us know what we can do for you!
