The ultimate way to learn how to care for you and your baby after birth. The only 100% online, watch-at-your-own-pace classes that cover everything you need to know – postpartum physical recovery, your emotions after birth, breast and bottle feeding, safe sleep, baby baths, and more. Learn what you need to know and what others wish they had known to keep you and baby healthy & safe in the postpartum period.

I feel so much more empowered on how to take care of myself and my baby! There is so much that I didn’t even know I didn’t know - like how to keep my baby safe in their crib (I actually had a “lovie” in his crib!!), how to soothe a crying baby, and even tips on how to make nursing easier. 

I feel so much more confident

I loved knowing what to expect when it came to the physical recovery. It was so great to be able to rewatch the important parts - like the tips on how to make a vagina healing sandwich. I would recommend these classes to anyone who is about to have a baby or just had a baby!

This made my postpartum recovery so much better!

As a first time parent, I was so nervous about having a baby. Tinyhood prepared me for everything and helped me know that what I was feeling was more than the “baby blues.” I am so thankful I watched these classes and learned how to not only feed and take care of my baby but also myself.

Don’t know what I would have done without these classes

Excellent training to prepare myself mentally for welcoming our baby into our family, it's a journey like starting a new job, you're a parent, and also you're still you. You're not alone.

Great information and Kee up the good work.

Very informational and educational tips and information

Having a support system to her you go through the hard times and stay of you feet for a few days

Very helpful and clear information. Love the take always for quick reference back.

I love the calm relaxed manner of the speaker. it is very reassuring :)

Incredible content, just the right amount of information. I hope my actual birthing nurse is this friendly, compassionate and informative. Thank-you!

Extremely comprehensive! Shows the many different ways a birth can go and gives good evidence based information.

Ashley was a wonderful presenter! I felt like she was very knowledgeable on the material she presented, gave straight facts and didn't sugar coat difficult issues. Wonderful mix of being reassuring and setting realistic expectations.

The information is very helpful for a first time mom.

Good information in easy to digest videos. Info on lots of topics I didn't know I needed to think about. Would highly recommend.

Great information! Definitely worth buying!

This class covers everything that is not said that is vital for anyone about to be a parent.

Excellent class Subject 💯

The post-baby relationship topic is undervalued, probably because most parents push through this rather quickly, while a small percentage don't make it.

We have a beautiful 19-month-old baby,👶but our parenting relationship divided like the Grand Canyon on the day our son was born.

SO, Remember to consider the importance of discussing your and your partner's post-baby relationship long beforehand.

It just might save your family.👨‍👩‍👦

I feel like this class gave me the tools to start the conversations with my partner to get us back on track to the loving relationship we had before the baby

Super helpful every couple with a new baby should watch this

Advice and insight was so helpful! As the "gestational parent" it made me feel so validated and reassured me that my feelings are normal and provided helpful suggestions on how to get past the "touched out" recoil! So grateful for this mini course!

Very clear and concrete advice, validating, helped name and frame current circumstances, good suggestions for how to start a conversation.

After watching the videos it totally makes so much more sense! I wish I would of watched this sooner, as my baby is about to turn one.

Wow I feel like she was speaking right to me. My mind seems more validated now after listening to this. Can’t wait to share it with my other new mommy friends!

Yeah, it’s just so helpful at pinpointing what’s going on and why, but doesn’t leave you there. It’s given such good pointers, conversation starters and validation for why we’ve felt the way we have. I feel seen and heard and encouraged to do the work to get to a better place.

Thank you so much for offering these free talks. Even if my partner and I aren't directly struggling with what's being talked about, they gave us a reason to make space and time to sit down together as parents and just talk!

so wishing you could offer courses/curriculums to health educators along with videos, handouts and resources to share with the antenatal prenatal and postpartum populations. 
great job on informing parents about what is real and what is normal!

Love the advice about how to prioritize one or the other for a day and not feel guilt about your decisions.

Hearing someone say that sometimes you need to say no and that’s okay, really makes it feel easier to try. It helps me to not feel guilty or that I’m letting everyone down.

I sooo needed to hear this... specifically the part about setting boundaries and the modeling of what that looks like. 
Thank you for sharing!

Wonderful innovative ideas that can benefit parents and even non-parents alike.

Loved this topic and discussion. Helps relieve "mom guilt" and show parents the impossible predicament society puts us in. Helps us make choices for right now and explain those/enforce boundaries with those involved in our lives. Great resource and timely with all that's happening right now. Thank you for this!

So valid and relevant! Thank you for the encouragement and empowerment through this lesson.

This specific topic came at the right moment where I personally ask myself "how am I suppose to make it work" as I stay awake with my 2 month old at 3 in the morning because she couldn't fall asleep after her midnight feeding and thinking about how I'm supposed to go into work whether I stay at a 7am to 7pm work shift or move to an 8am to 5pm schedule.  Thank you for this information.  I really felt so lost until you made me realize how true it is that it is a systemic issue.

The Mental Load of Parenting: Why It Happens & How to Manage It

Work-Life Balance: Why “Having It All” Is Holding Us Back

“Imagine if you started a new job. You’re not going to know everything you need to know to do the job well. It’s going to take time for you to feel confident and comfortable. New parenting, it’s the same thing.” — Divya Kumar, LCSW, Perinatal Psychotherapist. As much as we talk about preparing your body for the act of labor and birth, little is done to help parents prepare for the mental and emotional changes that new parenthood brings. Here, we talk about how to navigate that often startling shift in identity, as well as how to navigate your postpartum relationship, and when and how to seek help if you are struggling.
