“I think early parenthood can be a very lonely & isolating experience. RSG is a place where pregnant folks & new parents can come and feel supported & validated in their experience — no matter their difficult emotions or physical limitations. Whenever grandparents visit the space, the first thing I hear is “I wish there was something like this when I was having kids!” ”
I first came to Ready Set Grow as a student in November 2023, a month before my first son Ollie was born. I fell in love with the prenatal yoga and Daniele’s style of teaching & talking about birth. When Ollie was about 8 months old, a position opened to work at the front desk as an Perinatal Support Advisor. I applied right away! Ollie came with me to work at RSG every day, and it quickly became his second home. I’m so thankful for the much needed education and community RSG provides to families early on in their parenthood journey!
