Making Time for Mommy is a supportive craft and discussion class for pregnant and postpartum moms focused on self-care, stress reduction, creativity, and connection. Each session features a simple hands-on craft activity and guided discussion. This class is designed specifically for moms only, so please make arrangments for childcare. We strive to create a calm, relaxing atmosphere for all participants, with the goal of reducing stress rather than completing projects quickly; participants are welcome to continue and finish projects during future classes if needed. Class size is limited to 10 participants to encourage meaningful connection and support. All materials provided and class will close 48 hours in advance to ensure we have enough materials. Craft changes monthly. 

Feel free to bring your own craft if you do not want to participate in the one that is provided!

Please arrive to class at least 10 minutes before class starts. If babywearing, you are welcome to babywear in class.

Maternidad empoderada es una serie de cuatro semanas diseñada para ayudar a las mujeres embarazadas a superar los desafíos que pueden enfrentar durante el período posparto temprano. Si bien esta clase no es un tratamiento para la depresión posparto, su objetivo es brindarles a los participantes una comprensión de las emociones normales que se experimentan durante el período posparto, a menudo denominadas "tristeza posparto", y cómo reconocer cuándo estos sentimientos pueden indicar algo más graves, como la depresión posparto. Los participantes también obtendrán herramientas para controlar el estrés durante el embarazo y el período posparto, establecer límites con sus seres queridos, pedir ayuda, comunicar sus necesidades e identificar recursos para apoyo adicional cuando sea necesario.

Asegúrese de llegar a tiempo, ya que los participantes que lleguen con más de 15 minutos de retraso no serán admitidos.

**Esta clase es exclusivamente para futuras madres. Para fomentar un espacio para el intercambio abierto y la vulnerabilidad, no se permite la asistencia de los socios. Si la clase se cancela por algún motivo, los participantes serán notificados de inmediato.**
