PRENATAL SUPPORT CIRCLE
Building community before baby arrives.
Gather with other pregnant women for a circle of support and begin building friendships with women who are due around the same time as you!
This support circle is led by Iman, an experienced birth and postpartum doula.
Each month, she will briefly guide everyone through a topic that relates to pregnancy and then open up the group for discussion and support regarding pregnancy.
You are welcome to bring your children along, as a story time session for preschool-aged children will run simultaneously at The Children's Library.
Registration is not required, Drop-Ins Welcome! (Valid Al Hosn required for entry)
Join us and begin to build your village of support.
