Description

Make life-long friends, learn, and create lasting memories with your little one at Mommy Connections Cape Breton!

Our flagship Mom & Baby program offers new moms a unique opportunity to meet other moms, learn about local programs and services, and gather valuable parenting info—in a fun, low-pressure, inclusive environment.

Each week features a discussion led by a local expert on topics such as sleep, introducing solids, post-baby relationships, etc. Or, we’ll enjoy a fun and interactive activity like a craft, photo day, yoga, music, infant massage, etc. You’ll get an informal opportunity to chat and connect with others experiencing the same challenges, fears and excitement, building your village one week at a time.

We’ll meet every Tuesday in our Mommy Connections community space in the Southend Community Centre. This is a 6-week program best for babies from newborn to ~8 months (pre-crawling).

Included in your $120(+tax) registration fee is:

  • Six classes full of information, activities, bonding opportunities and connection
  • A free professional picture of you and your baby, taken by local photographer Wendy Gouthro (Edgewood Studio) with the option to purchase your additional photos or your full gallery at a special Mommy Connections rate
  • A private Facebook group so that you can get to know your fellow moms better
  • A swag bag with lots of goodies, samples, and coupons from local and national partners

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: How old should my baby be when I register?
A: The ideal time to do this program is when your baby is when you feel ready following birth. We also welcome ‘older’ babies up to 8 months, so long as they aren’t too mobile yet. If your baby is older or becoming busy, we offer Mini Movers programs for 8 to 24 month olds, and a popular Travelling Tots program for 2 to 4 years where baby siblings are welcome to tag along!

Q: What if I have multiples?
A: We welcome and love having multiples in our programs! You pay for YOUR spot as the caregiver, not the number of children attending, for all programs except Parent & Tot (2-4 years).

Q: Can I attend just a few classes?
A: Single sessions are not available. A huge focus of our program is community-building, which can only be created when a group is consistent from start to finish. We understand things come up and you may not be able to attend all classes, but you should plan to/be able to attend when you sign up.

Q: Can I join a program after the start date?
A: If there are any spaces remaining after a program begins, you can join late! The cost will be adjusted for you as a sale so you can register as usual. We’ll handle the rest and get you up to speed! Once we are more than 2 weeks into a program, please reach out first before registering. You may still be able to join, but the fee is only be prorated up to 2 classes.

Q: How many moms are in each class?
A: We aim to keep classes around 10-12 participants to foster a cozy, community feel. This may be more (up to 14) or less (as few as 8), depending on a program’s demand, but we do our best to stick to the sweet spot!

Q: When will I find out the schedule of topics/activities? Are the class types/activities guaranteed?
A: You will receive an official schedule before your session begins. A tentative agenda is available above, but is subject to change. We cannot guarantee that a particular topic/presenter will be a part of any given session. Class topics change from session to session for variety and are subject to local experts’ availability. We can, however, promise you a great mix of things!

Q: What is your cancellation policy?
A: Please note, registration cancellations are subject to a $30 administration fee, if applicable. View our full cancellation policy here. A minimum of 8 participants are needed in order to run this class. In the event that we need to cancel due to low registration, you will receive a full refund. You will be given the opportunity to be placed on the waitlist for the next series.

Q: Have you made any changes due to COVID-19?
A:  Please read our new policy here.
