A little behind-the-scenes look at what we’ve been working on lately. 👀

Ready Babe has always been about helping parents feel informed, prepared, and confident through our in-person prenatal classes. Now we’re expanding that vision with virtual learning modules designed to bring expert-led birth education to even more families.

We’re so excited about what’s coming and can’t wait to share more soon. 🤍

When the labour room vibe is tired, honest, and slightly unhinged 😆

There is so much information available to expecting parents that it can feel overwhelming.

The goal isn’t to know everything before your baby arrives. It’s about knowing where to find trusted information, asking questions, and building confidence along the way. 💚

That’s exactly why prenatal education matters.

Babies have so much to say long before they can use words.

Baby sign language can help bridge the gap between what your little one understands and what they’re able to communicate, reducing frustration while supporting connection, language development, and confidence.

Join us on June 25 at 9:30 AM for a special BYOBaby event with Nicole from . This interactive baby sign language and music class combines signs, songs, movement, and play to support your baby’s early communication skills while having fun together.

Plus, enjoy coffee, snacks, and connection with other local parents and babies in a welcoming, community-focused space.

Spots are limited—register today! 👶🎵☕️

Biology is doing some heavy lifting in the newborn stage.

The smell of your baby, skin-to-skin contact, feeding, cuddling, and even making eye contact can trigger oxytocin release in both parent and baby.

Oxytocin helps you feel connected to your baby while also lowering stress and supporting caregiving behaviours. At the same time, your baby’s brain is growing through every cuddle, snuggle, and comforting interaction.

Nature really said, “Here’s a tiny sleep thief. We’re going to make you obsessed with them anyway.”

Even if they bear a striking resemblance to Chris Farley. ❤️

Breastfeeding beyond 6 months comes with a whole new set of questions—about supply, frequency, solids, sleep, and what “normal” even looks like anymore.

We’re creating space to unpack those changes, talk through what’s common, and help you feel more confident in your feeding journey beyond the early weeks.

Come connect with other moms, let your baby explore gentle sensory stimulation in a calm environment, and enjoy snacks and coffee while you’re here.

At Ready Babe, we’re here to support you through every stage.

Visit our website to book your spot.

Newborn skin is sensitive and doesn’t usually need daily baths 🫧

Current recommendations support delaying the first bath when possible and limiting baths to a few times per week to help protect baby skin and preserve vernix.

Between baths, think more:
• face
• neck folds
• hands
• diaper area

Preparing for newborn care before baby arrives can make those early postpartum days feel much more manageable — including the practical stuff like feeding, bathing, diapering, sleep, and normal newborn behaviour 🤍 We cover all of this in prenatal classes at Ready Babe.

3 things I’d recommend before having a baby as an L&D nurse + mom👇

1. Research postpartum support BEFORE you need it.
Find out what resources are available in your area — lactation support, pelvic floor physio, postpartum doulas, mental health support, and mom groups. Save the numbers somewhere easy to find because postpartum brain is real.
2. Practice coping skills before labour starts.
I always tell people to try the “hand in ice water” exercise. Put your hand in a bowl of ice water, then practice using coping tools like breathing, music, hot water, aromatherapy, movement, or a birth comb to stay calm and regulated through the discomfort. Labour is a skill as much as it is an experience — your nervous system benefits from practice.
3. See a pelvic floor physio — and actually DO the exercises.
Pelvic floor control, breathing mechanics, pushing coordination, and hip mobility can make a huge difference in pregnancy, birth, and recovery.

This is exactly the kind of practical prep we cover in Ready Babe prenatal classes 🤍
