Education classes to support you & your growing family

feel supported during this next chapter

With the right support, you can navigate new or early parenthood with a real village, community and empowerment. It doesn’t have to be what people might fear monger you with – lonely, scary, hard, painful.

Here at Willa we understand that parents do not just need more tips and information. You can find most information at your fingertips. We create structure, accountability and a container for you to unravel, become and be witnessed through support.

“Willa Wellness has been such a haven for me throughout my pregnancy. Between prenatal yoga, birth class, lactation class and Mama Mastermind, Willa helped me feel fully prepared for birth and postpartum. I am so grateful to say I had a positive birth and postpartum period, and I truly credit Willa for that due to the knowledge, support, and community I gained by participating in these programs throughout pregnancy.”

“Taking the Embodied Birth Class with my husband was such a meaningful experience. We enjoyed learning in the small group setting alongside other couples on the same journey into parenthood. Ella and Tara’s approach created a safe and nurturing space where we could explore the physical and emotional aspects of birth together. We feel more connected to each other and to the process of bringing our baby into the world. This class is a unique resource on the Eastside, and we would recommend it to anyone seeking a supportive community.”

“I am so glad I signed up for this on a whim. I didn’t think I would need breastfeeding education prior but I am so glad I had this information when I was postpartum, sleep deprived and happy I wasn’t searching google for information.”
