momstown Oakville's Mom and Baby Program

I think its pretty common to hear the advice that one of the best ways to ease into motherhood is to find a support network.  momstown Oakville's mom and baby program, Baby Basics, is the perfect way for new moms to connect in their community.  When I had my first child, my sister who was also on maternity leave at the same time as me but with her second child, was my life line!  We chatted every day and she was a wealth of information and support for me.  But she lives in Toronto and I live in Oakville.  While I valued the support she gave me, I also knew I needed to make friends and connections in my own community.  And so I joined momstown Oakville when my son was 4 months old and started going to Baby Basics and can say that it was one of the best decisions for me and my kids!

momstown Oakville's mom and baby program meets once at week at Ellephysio.  We usually have a guest speaker who comes in to talk about topics relevant to moms with babies and we also do some fun baby art and, of course, always have time to chat and connect with each other.

Some of our recent speaking topics have been:

• Baby Wearing (learning how to use slings and wraps)
• Tips from a Sleep Consultant
• Baby Proofing
• Postpartum Depression
• Using Sign Language to Communicate with Baby
• Springtime Flowers
• Baby Art:  Footprint Robins
