Sasha and Alex are both moms and mental health professionals who are passionate about supporting mothers and their partners through the transition to parenthood. Preparing4Baby grew out of the passion both of us developed after not feeling fully prepared for the impact that a baby would make on our lives.
With the primary focus during pregnancy being on mom and baby’s physical health, anyone who has had a baby has likely been encouraged to take a birthing course or baby care readiness course. Yet few expecting parents are encouraged to explore and prepare for how having a baby may impact your mental health, individual identity, relationship with your partner, other children if you have any, connection with friends, and your overall, everyday life. Convenient and at your own pace, this video learning series was created to do just that.
Our mission is to help as many new and expecting parents as we can so that they hopefully do not have to go through some of the challenges that many, including ourselves, have gone through by better Preparing4Baby.
