Learning that you are expecting a baby and then welcoming that little one into your family are major life milestones. And you can’t do it alone! Read about some local Oakville resources that can help you navigate pregnancy and your life as a new mom.
Its been clinically proven that in person peer to peer support is crucial for new moms. Meeting other new moms and finding support reduces post partum depression, feelings of loneliness and isolation and helps new moms feel connected. momstown Oakville runs a mom and baby program in Oakville twice a week that supports that need for connection and brings in local experts to share helpful information and lots of time for questions. We also help mom and baby bond with fun keepsake craft or sensory activities. A one year program pass (which provides access to all of our 20+ programs run each month) is $85 + HST and is eligible for the Children's Art Tax Credit and includes a bonus subscription to Today's Parent magazine. Congratulations on your pregnancy or new baby – we look forward to meeting you soon!
Stay tuned for more information about our June 3, 2015 prenatal Belly Basics event!

You're pregnant or have just become a new mom, congratulations! It is such an exciting time in your life. Like you, many new moms and moms-to-be feel really inspired to jump-start their way to optimal health. In addition to healthy diet and exercise, perhaps you have considered seeing a naturopathic doctor (ND) but are unsure how an ND can support you. We can assist with:
Nutritional counselling * Prenatal and Post Natal supplementation * Nausea and vomiting * Constipation * UTIʼs and yeast infections * Heartburn * Group B Streptococcus (GBS) prevention & treatment * Preparation for labour and delivery * Prevent disease and optimize your childʼs health * Postpartum support – NDs can help with such things as colic, lactation, sleep techniques and postpartum depression.

Did you know that when a baby is being delivered, an average of 60 to 90 lbs of force is placed on a child's neck during a "normal" delivery?
When parents ask us: "Why does my child need to see a Chiropractor?" We tell them it is because we want their children to be able to express their full potential for health. We tell them that we want their children to be able to carry out the dreams and goals they were designed to achieve. We tell them that we want their children to thrive and be able to live their life fully alive.
