🇺🇸 Honoring Our Veterans 🇺🇸
Today, we pause to honor the brave men and women who have served our country with courage, dedication, and sacrifice.

At A Mother’s Village, we know that nurturing begins with service, whether it’s the selfless service of those who protect our freedoms or the quiet, daily devotion of parents caring for their little ones.

To all veterans and military families in our community: thank you. Your strength, resilience, and commitment inspire us every day. 💙

I have the sweetest clients right now (**shared with permission they are current clients**) who run the most amazing small business (you all know how much I love supporting small businesses!). They’re so talented, take a quick peek at their website, and you’ll be amazed at what they can do.

If you’ve got a kiddo in 1st–8th grade, sign them up! We’re bummed to miss this one because of a family conflict Saturday afternoon, but my girls will definitely be at the next event.

I spent this weekend going through every shelf and bin to create a detailed inventory of our donation and supply stock for A Mother’s Village. It was a big project, reviewing what we have, what’s in use, and what’s missing, and it reminded me how many times I’ve had to turn down donation requests from families simply because we didn’t have the right items available.

This program has been built almost entirely through my own time, resources, and care. countless hours of sorting, cleaning, sanitizing, and washing pump parts, often running extra dishwasher cycles and using my own supplies to prepare donations for families. I’m deeply committed to continuing this work, but I can’t do it alone. 💛

Our donation and supply program exists to bridge the gap for families who need breastfeeding and pumping supplies but cannot afford them. Every pump, part, and bottle donated helps a mother continue providing breastmilk for her baby, often through challenges that no parent should face alone. 💕

We’re currently in need of the following items to restock our community donation inventory:

We’re thrilled to share some beautiful news! 💕

A Mother’s Village is now an official Milk Drop Depot site in partnership with Mothers’ Milk Bank of Tennessee. This means local donors in Bowling Green can drop off their frozen, approved breast milk here, and it will go on to help fragile infants in need through MMBTN’s distribution network.

If you’ve ever wondered how to share your extra milk to help babies, you now have a convenient local drop-off point.

Interested in donating? Visit https://www.milkbanktn.org/donate or send us a message, we'd love to help you get started!

💉✨ Sometimes people don’t realize how much time, effort, and heart goes into reviewing labs, interpreting results, and giving thoughtful supplement or medication suggestions to discuss with their provider.

The reason I pour so much into it is simple: I’ve been the patient. I’m still the patient.

I know what it’s like to bounce from doctor to doctor, to feel unheard, to beg for the right tests, to fight for answers when something just feels off. That experience shaped the way I show up for my clients.

Every bit of education, every lab I double-check, every note I write, it all comes from that place of wanting no one to feel as dismissed or unseen as I once did (and sometimes still do).

If you’ve ever had to advocate for yourself in the healthcare system… you get it. ❤️.

✨ Small changes = big results! ✨

Sometimes the right fl**ge size and a few simple adjustments can completely change your pumping experience. 💪 This mom went from frustration to her best pump yet, 4 oz in 20 minutes!

If pumping has been painful, slow, or discouraging, it’s not you, it’s the setup. A personalized fit and technique review can make all the difference. 💕

It was such an honor to serve on the board for the very first Promise Walk for Preeclampsia here in Bowling Green! 💜 The turnout was amazing, the stories shared were powerful, and the sense of community was truly inspiring.

Preeclampsia touches far too many families, and bringing awareness through events like this is such an important step forward. I’m so grateful to everyone who walked, volunteered, shared their story, or donated to the cause, you made this first year a success.

I’m already looking forward to planning next year’s walk and continuing to grow this movement in our community. Together, we can raise awareness, support families, and save lives. 💜✨

🌿 At A Mother’s Village, one of the most meaningful parts of reading through a new client intake form is seeing how families find their way to us.

It’s always an honor when a former client refers a friend or loved one, it tells us that your experience was valuable enough to share. Equally powerful, though, are the referrals from those who may have never worked with us directly, sometimes even individuals who don’t have children themselves, but who trust the quality of care we provide and want their community cared for with compassion.

Every single referral, whether from a client I’ve supported or a community member who believes in our mission, is a reminder of the trust and connection that make this work so special. 💜

✨ If you’ve ever felt supported by A Mother’s Village, one of the best ways to help us continue serving families is by leaving a kind review on Facebook AND Google. Reviews not only help families find the support they need, but they also give them the confidence that compassionate, evidence-based care is available right here in Bowling Green.

Thank you for continuing to share, support, and spread the word. Your voices truly make a difference. 🌸
