In-Person Groups during Pregnancy & Early Parenthood
In-person groups are once again added to Olive Tree Birthing's schedule. We'll be meeting either at the Woodlawn Shelter at Bryan Park (located on the east side of park, on South Woodlawn Ave. & East Southdowns Dr.) OR on the grassy lawn west of the Bryan Park Pool parking lot. Bring a blanket or lawn chairs! Parking is available at the Bryan Park parking lot off Southdowns or at the Bryan Park Pool parking lot, both within walking distance of either meeting location. A small contribution ($3-5) per group is welcomed, though not necessary. If the group grows too large for us to safely gather, there will be a limit. For now, we'll keep it drop-in format.
Thursday and Saturday groups are for those that are pregnant or have a young baby. Childbirth Preparation Meet Up is for those pregnant and looking for an in-person option to discuss your questions, learn about options, meet other parents-to-be and build your community.
Once your form is reviewed, you will be contacted with additional information closer to the group date. Filling out the form doesn't commit you to attending each group and if the group needs to be limited in order to safely gather, you will be asked to fill out an additional registration form for those purposes.
BRYAN PARK GROUP meets Thursdays 4-5pm starting April 1 (upcoming dates April 29, May 6, 13, 20, 27) and is not hosted formally in June.
SATURDAY BP GROUP meets the first Saturday of the month, 10:30-11:30am starting April 3 (April 3, May 1, June 5).
CHILDBIRTH PREPARATION MEET UP meets Wednesdays, 5:30-6:45pm (May 12, June 2)*$5-15 per meet-up
