Becoming a parent is life changing. It can feel blissful, terrifying, easy, hard, rewarding, and challenging all at the same time. So much has changed, there’s so many questions, so many emotions, let’s talk about it! Our new parent support groups are facilitated by trained doulas who help guide the transition into the new role of parenthood. Here we share our stories, ask hard questions, reminisce about the joys, and maybe (probably) cry a little. Find your tribe with us, all are welcome.

Welcome MaryNissi Lemon of @lemonlifedoula! In the spirit of Mental Health Awareness Month, MaryNissi will discuss mental health in the postpartum and early parenting season of life. Postpartum challenges are very real, and how we identify with our new role and the support systems in place can either leave us empowered or failing to thrive. Let's talk about it!

MaryNissi is a full spectrum Birth Coach (Doula), Childbirth Educator and Breastfeeding Peer Counselor. She has been supporting families on their birthing journey for over 5 years. Equipping families prepare for pregnancy, birth, and after. Using hands-on education, MaryNissi, is passionate about meeting every birthing mama and family with a holistic approach to positively impact their birth and postpartum outcome and satisfaction.
