What Our Moms Are Saying:
Hi Renee, It has been a great experience! - I've already recommended the group to a couple friends. See you in the new moms group - Beth
Hi Renee, Thanks again for Monday's session, wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed it. I learned so much, and most of all, come out full of confidence on my ability to do this and be a mom. - Gaelle
Renee - Many thanks to you for organizing, hosting, and structuring. It's been great, relaxing, entertaining, fun, and insightful - Anneloes
Hi Renee - Wanted to thank you again for all the guidance, perspective and support. They have been a really powerful tool in managing the introduction to parenthood! I'd have a lot more stress, second guessing, and fewer smiles if I had not attended. Hope to see you soon! Thanks, Suzi
Becoming a new mom was the most exhilarating, exhausting, and intense journey I'd ever experienced. What I found I needed most was a sense of community, which is what this group offers. Meeting up, learning from, and laughing with others helps turn an uncertain and potentially scary time into a shared adventure. Renee makes everyone comfortable, and is a reassuring and knowledgeable guide for new moms! - Ellie, mom to Ben
