Our “Meet the Doulas: Mocktail Hour” Was a Hit!
Hosted at The Pelvic Institute | July 8

We had an incredible time at our Meet the Doulas: Mocktail Hour on July 8 at The Pelvic Institute! Over 50 expecting families joined us for an evening filled with connection, celebration, and education. The atmosphere was joyful and welcoming as families explored their pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journeys with support from our community.

Families had the chance to chat one-on-one with our team of experienced birth and postpartum doulas. These dedicated professionals were on hand to answer questions, offer insights, and share how they support families during pregnancy, labor, and beyond.

We were honored to be hosted by Dr. Amanda Neri of The Pelvic Institute. Families also got to connect with our amazing guest expert:

• Dr. Callista Lay from Revive Chiropractic Healing Center

Our expert shared valuable information and resources to support families’ physical and emotional well-being throughout the perinatal period.

Guests enjoyed refreshing mocktails from Abu Sauce Mocktails and stunning cookies and treats from Pretty Little Sweets: the perfect complement to a warm and festive evening.

Ariel Ross was the wonderful photographer who captured all of the incredible moments! The Ciao Baby photo booth was a big hit! Families walked away with adorable keepsake photos and plenty of laughs. Our raffles and games added to the excitement, creating opportunities for connection and fun among attendees.
