Hey moms! Searching to find your footing after having a baby or multiples? Would you benefit from the support of other women who won't judge you? Here, we will encourage each other, vent our frustrations, fist-bump our successes and enjoy the company of moms who "get it" while discussing the impact of motherhood. This is a FREE (open to the public) drop-in peer support group for expecting moms and new moms with children under 1 year (pre-walkers) hosted by Napa Moms' Co-Directors of Outreach & Education, Jennifer Hampton, (psychotherapist at Moxie LCSW) and Crystal McAuley (2020 Mom Ambassador & Postpartum Support International Coordinator).
