"As someone who was nervous to start solids with my baby, this workshop was exactly what I needed to feel confident feeding my baby! Jillian was very knowledgeable and happy to answer any of our questions. The space was baby friendly and I was able to play with/feed my baby as Jillian took us through the presentation."

We love getting to meet your cute little ones 🙂

We will have a foam mat for the floor if you’d like to set them down to play, feed them, or maybe even nap. They are more than welcome and you will have enough space to walk around with them, you can bring in their car seat, or do whatever you need to do. We totally get it!
