Mothering Circle

Led by: Bonnie Romanow

A mothering group best for expectant mothers and those parenting newborn to 1 year olds.

New moms (in the first 12 months postpartum), and those who are expecting, need tender care and support not always readily available in our busy times. Create time for yourself and baby – relax into new motherhood in a circle based on respect and friendship.

Express your interest by emailing us at parent-child@berkeleyrose.org.
