Our son was born mid-February 2020, and a few weeks into his life the world changed with the spread of COVID-19. Both myself and my husband felt educated and empowered throughout the end of my pregnancy, during and after the birth. I hired Holly as my doula which was the best investment I made for the birth of my son. When I felt uneasy about my initial OBGYN choice, I was given a wealth of resources and information to help me make the decision that was right for me. Any questions or worries I had were met with kind, thoughtful and comforting answers. Throughout my pregnancy I went to yoga classes, childbirth classes, and more and absorbed the knowledge and positive energy shared amongst everyone who came through those doors. Now was the time to sign up, although looking back I wish I’d done it sooner for the energizing and relaxing effects to take hold even sooner. I finally felt up to more movement and was already noticing the effects of my body changing. I spoke to Neelu and Holly inside about membership, and left with a sense of calm and comfort.įast forward a bit to the end of the first trimester. Mere days after seeing my positive pregnancy test I popped in, feeling overwhelmed by all the newness coming my way. I walked by Love Child many times before I was pregnant and loved the peaceful looking space. Through the pandemic they’ve continued to provide a five star service all yoga, community and kids classes moved seamlessly online, and recordings are available so you can join when time / baby allows! I cannot recommend Love Child enough for yoga, support groups, pregnancy and childcare education and as a way to meet other parents it’s a very special place - either at 1 Horatio Street or on Zoom! They helped me navigate through each stage of pregnancy and new motherhood with such care and kindness. The team go above and beyond to create a community that makes every member feel valued and supported. Love Child is much more than just a yoga studio. Love Child is so much more than a yoga studio! Neelu, Holly, and Sarah-Grace have created an amazing community for parents, caregivers and children. My husband and I love taking her to weekend events (they throw great parties) or Sunday Family yoga. Even on days she is not at Love Child, my daughter is likely on a play date with another Love Child toddler. Now as a toddler, our caregiver takes her to Love Child for art, movement or music classes.
When she was a young infant, we were regulars at Baby and Me Yoga (the cutest thing ever), New Parents Circle and Baby Play Date.
The week after I delivered, Neelu came to my home to help me with early breastfeeding woes (included in the membership!) Since my daughter was born, our relationship with Love Child evolved. My husband and I took classes on multiple topics at different facilities throughout the city, we both agreed that the Breastfeeding course we took at Love Child was the best and most useful. Love Child also offers classes to prepare for parenthood. We frankly discussed the physical and emotional toll that pregnancy and motherhood takes on you, your career and your relationship with your partner. I joined a weekly Prenatal Circle with a group of soon-to-be first time moms.
This review is long over-due as Love Child has been such an amazing resource for my family! As an expecting mother, I attended Prenatal Yoga regularly from my second trimester.
