Thinking about Mommy & Me? Have you Found Your Support Community, and Are You Getting Everything You Can From It??
The Pump Station & Nurtury offers an amazing program which is built around expert knowledge and experience. It was developed by Dr. Jill Campbell, a clinical psychologist with 20+ years experience in early childhood development, parenting and women’s issues, and every group is led by female licensed therapists. These are not just discussion groups – over many years they have seen life long relationships develop from them. The Pump Station Mommy & Me helps hundreds of moms every month understand and excel at dealing with the age-specific challenges you face with your newborn and toddler. Because they offer so many groups, you can join a group that is narrowly grouped based on your child’s birth month, so you will always be learning about age-specific topics that relate to your child.
