This is just the beginning!

We find that women and families have endless resources to utilize during pregnancy, but what about after the baby arrives? The postnatal period varies with every woman and child; however, regardless of your experience, we can all agree this is a period of great change for all families.

The JCC is here for you now and for every milestone in your life’s journey with our postnatal programs.

Baby Café

In partnership with: Michaud Family  

Baby Café is a welcoming, drop-in community for new parents, whether they are currently nursing, bottle feeding, or simply seeking a supportive space. This informal gathering offers professional lactation care and intervention as needed with opportunity for weighted feeds. Baby Cafés serve as both support groups and social hubs. Parents can connect, share experiences, and enjoy the company of fellow new moms in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. It’s a space designed to foster connections and provide a sense of community for various stages of new parenthood.

At the JCC Denver, we expand on the Baby Café model and provide additional local specialists to discuss topics that help in the early days of parenting.

Topics covered include adjusting to parenthood, nutrition, babywearing, sleep and routines, formula and breastfeeding, back to work, vision board creating, childcare, work/life balance, and more. Plenty of time devoted to answering your questions each week. We provide breastfeeding pillows.

Pre/Postnatal Yoga Workshop with Erin Floyd

This unique class is to benefit both pregnant and postpartum women. It is not just a great opportunity to connect to your breath and prepare your body for pregnancy, birth, and after-birth care, but also a wonderful way to make other mom friends.  Through building a support system for yourself, you will leave validated, understood, and supported. Feel empowered to take an active role in your pregnancy and postpartum body; in this class, you’ll learn poses that will help in labor, poses to combat the rounded sore shoulders that come with snuggling your newborn, and the stiff back that accompanies the ‘mom-hip.’  You’ll build strength and confidence in your new body and help combat fatigue. You will leave class feeling positive, relaxed, rejuvenated and ready to take on the day!
Please check with your doctor to make sure you are cleared for yoga and exercise during your pregnancy and after birth.
