Current workshops, networking events, and classes for local small business owners and perinatal professionals are listed below. Interested in teaching, facilitating, or hosting something in our beautiful space? We love a good collab!
Networking
Brunch
Friday, October 24th 9:30-11:30am
As the seasons change, it’s time to reflect and connect! Join us for this fall networking brunch at Illuminated Birth & Company. This is an opportunity to meet local small business owners who work with young and growing families. Our past events have brought together doulas, photographers, physical therapists, mental health professionals, lactation consultants, acupuncturists, and so many more local amazing professionals. The connections made help us to grow our referral lists, get the word out about new things that we’re doing, and inspire us with new ideas. Your co-hosts, Jen Vohra and Megan Peasley, believe in the power of collaboration and can’t wait to share this morning with you!
Babywearing for Birth Workers
Jen is thrilled to share her expertise with others in the field, enabling other perinatal professionals to increase their knowledge and ability to support clients of their own. The goal of these sessions is to enable the professional to feel confident in their knowledge of the basics about a range of topics so that they can best help expectant and new families who frequently have questions in these same realms (e.g., babywearing and hip dysplasia; how to confirm a baby is being worn snugly enough, etc.).
Car Seats for Birth Workers
