Not everyone's journey to parenthood looks the same. Some families experience infertility struggles and take fertility treatments like IVF or choose a surrogate. Other families decide that fostering or adoption is the right course for them. There are many ways to become a parent, and we recognize and value each one. To us, as soon as a person welcomes a child into their heart and supports and cares for that child as they grow, they're a parent. And a pretty great parent at that! I've always had a

Being a Strong Mama, Raising a Strong Baby

2023/02/20

Our babies learn so much from us as their parents, but we can learn a lot from our babies too. They are natural movers—curious about everything and always ready to explore the world. We see that all babies are already little athletes. They run, jump, squat, plank, and learn through movement and play. As we explore the world and play with our babies, we both become stronger and grow stronger together. Robin Arzón saw this in her daughter and her little friends and has now published her latest book,

As parents, we know that each child is different, including how they learn. Because we all learn differently, how can parents set their children up for success?

We're excited about today's podcast guest because she gives us a deeper look into the brain and how we learn.

Giving birth is a powerful moment in a woman's life. As a birth doula for over a decade, I've witnessed hundreds of women walk into their new role as mothers as they welcome their children into the world.

Sleep is something that many new parents obsess over. Is their baby getting enough sleep? Too much sleep? Not enough consolidated sleep? It can be overwhelming and exhausting. One of the biggest fears about sleep that many parents with a new baby have is SIDS. Sudden Infant Death Syndrome is the sudden, unexpected and unexplained death of an apparently healthy baby. About 2,300 babies die per year in the United States.1 It's an alarming statistic, and every parent wants to reduce the risk of SIDS

Childhood. It can be one of the best times of your life. No real responsibilities. You are just learning, growing, and becoming the person you were meant to be. While some of us wish we could have stayed little forever and avoided adulting and big responsibilities, others couldn't wait to grow up. They couldn't wait to be able to go out on their own, provide for themselves, make their own decisions, have control, and start a new life. Not everyone grows up in a home with a perfect family with a

How to Heal Your Pelvic Floor After Baby

Chick Chat ·

2022/08/15

A woman’s body goes through many changes during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. One of those changes is her pelvic floor. As a baby grows in the womb, the organs around it move to make room for the baby. This causes the uterus, intestines, and bladder to place extra pressure on the pelvic floor. And whether you had a vaginal birth or a cesarean birth, the pelvic floor after pregnancy and childbirth can potentially cause issues; urinary incontinence, pooping problems, painful sex, organ prolapse,

When parents bring home their new baby, everything about their life changes — their priorities, schedules, and sleep. After many sleepless nights, parents can become fixated on how to help their new little one sleep longer stretches. We get it. We've been there. It can be exhausting. But most parents think the only way to get through it is to sleep train their baby. We thought so, too, that is until we met Rachael Shepard-Ohta.

Raising a toddler has its highs and lows. They are incredible little human beings, but they also have a lot of big emotions. Not all of these emotions are pleasant, especially during learning moments, which can be hard for both the child and the parent. As parents, we do our best to guide our children to grow to be their best versions of themselves. Understanding their emotions, behavior, and development can help us better understand and parent our children. That is why I was thrilled to have the
