Community Events
As doulas, we recognize the value of community.
We understand that while the physical act of growing and birthing a baby is done by one person, the work of supporting, preparing, and nurturing moms, families and babies is COMMUNITY work.
From monthly Zoom Calls, Prenatal Yoga, Seasonal Gatherings and Workshops, we hope to help our clients build their community.
Pelvic Floor Prep for Birth & Beyond
Presented by Dr. Ellen Meisner, Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist
Your body is doing something incredible, and the more you understand it, the more confident and prepared you'll feel when the big day arrives.

You'll walk away with:
A better understanding of how your pelvic floor works during pregnancy and birth
Practical tools and techniques to help you prepare your body for delivery
Guidance on what to expect in postpartum recovery
Space to ask your questions in a warm, judgment-free environment
This event is designed for pregnant women at any stage who want to feel informed, empowered, and cared for as they move toward birth.
Acupressure for Pregnancy, Labor & Beyond: A Hands-On Class for Couples
Presented by Alisa Galvan, L. Ac., IBCLC
The birthing partner has a powerful role to play in supporting this transformative time for the family. Expectant couples will learn practical acupressure techniques rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine that can be used from pregnancy through labor and into those first tender days with your newborn. No experience necessary. Just two sets of hands and a willingness to show up for each other.
What You’ll Learn
By the end of this class, you and your partner will know how to use acupressure to:
Ease common pregnancy discomforts — swelling, digestive issues, anxiety, and pain
Prepare the body for labor and support a smoother birth experience
Use targeted points actively during labor for pain relief and encouragement
Support lactation and ease the early challenges of breastfeeding
Comfort and calm your newborn in those early postpartum days
What to Have Ready
Comfortable clothes, each other, and a doll or stuffed teddy bear to represent baby.
Feeding Your Newborn
Sarah Burns, LM, IBCLC, of Night and Day San Diego, will join us for an informative session on breastfeeding and bottle feeding. She will be sharing insights, tips, and answering your questions.
