Nurture Circle
A 12-week postpartum circle for mothers + babies
You were never meant to figure out postpartum or your baby alone.
Understand your baby. Understand yourself. And discover how nurturing your baby is shaping both of you.
The early months of motherhood can hold so much at once. Deep love and complete exhaustion. Wonder and uncertainty. Feeling incredibly close to your baby one moment and completely overwhelmed the next.
And underneath all of it, something extraordinary is happening:
Your baby's brain is developing, and your brain is changing, too.
Nurture Circle is a 12-week postpartum experience for mothers and their babies rooted in the neuroscience of nurturing, connection, and the developing parentābaby relationship.
Each week, we'll gather in a small circle to learn about what's happening in your baby's developing brain and nervous system, and what's happening inside you as you become their mother. There will be space to learn. Space to practice. Space to share what's actually happening. Space to be with other mothers. Space for connection and bonding.
And your baby isn't an interruption to the experience as society might want you to believe.
Your baby is part of it.
This isn't about becoming a perfectly regulated mother or learning the "right" way to parent.
It's about becoming more curious about yourself and your baby and building your capacity to meet both of you with greater awareness, compassion, and connection.
What weāll explore together
Across our 12 weeks together, we'll explore the neuroscience of nurturing and bring it into the ordinary, messy, beautiful moments of life with a baby.
We'll talk about:
Your baby's developing brain and the powerful role nurturing relationships play in early development
Your changing maternal brain and the transformation that happens as you become a mother
Nurtured presence and what it means for your baby to feel seen, known, and loved
Connection and communication with your baby, including noticing and responding to their cues
Empathy, emotions, and needs, your baby's and your own
Infant stress and how to support your baby through difficult moments
Your own nervous system, including practical ways to work with stress and overwhelm in the moment
Infant sleep through a nurturing, developmentally informed lens
The complicated emotions of motherhood and making room for two things to be true at once
Intuition and interoception, learning to notice and trust the signals coming from within your own body
Self-compassion and offering yourself some of the same tenderness you so readily give your baby

You are learning your baby. Your baby is learning you.
And somewhere in the middle of all that feeding, waking, holding, soothing, questioning, loving, worrying, and beginning again,
both of your brains are changing.
You don't have to navigate that transformation alone.
Come spend 12 weeks learning about the extraordinary relationship developing between you and your baby while being held in relationship and community yourself.
What a Nurture Circle looks like
We'll begin by arriving; not just physically but in our bodies.
Each gathering includes a simple grounding practice to help you settle into the space, followed by intentional time connecting with your baby.
From there, we'll explore that week's teaching and then move into a practice that helps bring what we're learning out of our heads and into our actual lives.
Next we will take time to share in circle. Because sometimes the most regulating thing isn't another piece of information. It's sitting across from another mother and realizing:
Oh. You too.
We'll close our time together with a simple ritual before heading back into the rest of our day.
Over the 12 weeks, the rhythm becomes familiar, a place to return to, reconnect, and continue growing alongside your baby.
Meet Your Facilitator
Hi, Iām Lesha. Iām a trauma-informed somatic practitioner, occupational therapist, and craniosacral therapist specializing in pregnancy, postpartum, babies, and the nervous system.
Iām also a Nurture Neuroscience practitioner, bringing the science of early brain development and nurturing relationships into the real, everyday experience of motherhood.
My work has always centered around the same question: How do we support the baby while also supporting the mother who is doing the nurturing?
Nurture Circle brings those pieces together. Weāll explore what neuroscience is teaching us about your babyās developing brain, your changing maternal brain, attachment, regulation, and connection while making room for the very human experience of becoming a mother.
Iāll be there to teach and guide our practices, but also to hold a warm, judgment-free space where you and your baby can show up exactly as you are.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Yes! The point of this circle is to have your baby there with you.
-
Nurture Circle is designed with the early postpartum months in mind, when babies are still spending much of their time being held, fed, cuddled, and close to you. There isn't a strict age cutoff, but the circle will likely be the best fit for mothers with younger, not-yet-mobile babies. Your crawling baby is very much welcome, just keep in mind you will need to tend to them just as you would your newborn.
If you're unsure whether the circle is a good fit for you and your baby, feel free to reach out before registering.
-
Bring whatever you normally need to comfortably spend a morning out with your baby: diapers, feeding supplies, a blanket, extra clothes, and anything else that helps the two of you feel comfortable.
You don't need to bring a perfectly rested baby or have a perfectly put-together morning. Come as you are.
-
Perfect. Your baby is being a baby.
Feed them, change them, walk around, bounce them, soothe them, or step out for a moment if that's what you need. There is no expectation that babies will be quiet or participate in every part of the circle.
This space is intentionally designed for mothers with their babies, not for mothers to somehow manage their babies while trying to participate.

-
The full series is encouraged because the teachings and relationships deepen over our time together, but we also know that life with a baby is unpredictable.
Your registration reserves your place for all 12 gatherings. If you need to miss a week, that's okay, you can simply return to the circle the following week.
-
Because Nurture Circle is intentionally small and your registration holds one of the limited spaces for the full series, refunds or credits aren't available for individual classes you miss.
-
Yes, when space allows. Drop-in registration is $30 per gathering.
If you know you'd like the ongoing support and community of the circle, the full 12-week experience is $249 and offers the best value. The drop in rate will only be available if the class is not already full.
-
No. Nurture Circle is an educational and supportive postpartum experience rooted in nurturing neuroscience, nervous system awareness, connection, and community. It is not psychotherapy or a replacement for medical or mental health care.
-
Not at all.
This isn't a neuroscience lecture. We'll take what we know about the developing baby and maternal brain and bring it into the real moments of motherhood such as feeding, soothing, sleeping, connecting, feeling overwhelmed, and learning who your baby is.
You just need to bring yourself and your baby. We'll explore the rest together.
