Connect™ exists because new mom’s need a place to feel nurtured and supported. They need to brainstorm ideas, get reliable information and to know there are other women facing similar challenges, decisions and struggles. Adding a child to the family is not a simple process. There are significant postpartum adjustments for both parents, but especially for the mother. Our goal is to make the transition and journey into motherhood a joyful and peaceful experience. Come join other women as they share their discoveries, concerns and individual insight into this exciting journey of motherhood.
