🎉 New Blog Post 🎉

🍋 Okay, so it's been a minute...or 3 months....since we last shared a blog post contributed by someone from our perinatal community....BUT this one is just in time for the holiday season (read: boundaries, self-care, & gifting).

🌿 Recently, Alisa Zuka from shared a copy of her Mommy Milestones journal that she created out of her own postpartum experience, and we couldn't be more thrilled to share more about it with you.

🎉 TWO Women's Business League Nominations 🎉

🍋 This morning, I learned I was nominated for ✨TWO✨ awards from : the "Community Impact" and the "Spirit of WBL".

🌿 As for spirit, I love hosting the Tri-Town Chapter of WBL at The Lemon Grove. It's inspiring & satisfying to have a few dozen women business owners in our Community Room every other week. This year, I feel especially proud of how I embodied the spirit of WBL through my commitment to empowering & championing others through networking, teaching, mentorship, while seeing it as part of our combined growth mindset! I'm also very grateful for some of my WBL peers who have really helped me feel (more) comfortable asking for and receiving help so that I can show up for myself with prioritizing how I define balance.

🍋 As for community impact, this is the greatest compliment & most meaningful nomination. Community is like breathing at The Lemon Grove - it's intentionally at the core of everything we do. Community creation, involvement, & amplification are inextricable to our identity.

🫶🏽 Thank you for the nomination & all that voted. I'm humbled & so excited to show you what we have lined up for 2026, centering spirit & community at The Lemon Grove.

🚗 TLG On the Road 🚗

🍋 Our Community Engagement Coordinator .russo.gilliam was delighted to have represented The Lemon Grove at ' open house this morning.

🎉 Spinning Babies Parent Class Day 🎉

🍋 It's a beautiful day to teach families !

🌿 What is Spinning Babies?

The physiological approach of the Spinning Babies® Parent Class shows you what to do for an easier birth with practical birth preparation baby positioning to fit the pelvis and reduce pain in childbirth. Parents love learning why this works, and how to increase comfort for pregnancy and in birthing. After this class, expectant parents will better understand how their baby can find optimal positions for labor, and make birth less painful— even pleasurable!

🍋 Our group 2026 Spinning Babies®️ Parent Classes are now LIVE on our website and we're always happy to teach 1:1! This is also a great gift for the expecting parents in your life!

🍁🦃 Happy Doulas-Giving! 🦃 🍁

🍋 Yesterday we celebrated Doulas-Giving: a heartwarming opportunity for the doulas on the team to meet/reconnect with one another, to joyously share in community, and to celebrate the privilege of doing this work.

🌿 This year, we had such special representation among the group - those who have been part of The Lemon Grove since the beginning and those who just joined, doulas from both of our Full Spectrum Doula Training cohorts, doulas who started as as clients, clients who started as doulas, the amazing .roth who also calls TLG home, and the magical .russo.gilliam who we're so appreciative of, as our community engagement coordinator. 🦄

🍋 Yesterday might have been Doulas-giving but I'm grateful & thankful for each of these folks (and all of the wonderful folks on our team not pictured) every day. I'm so proud of the doulas they are and am inspired to see how we all continue to thrive together in 2026 & beyond.

🌿 Also represented:
🔸Brooke: All the (apple cider jugs) bring the boys to the yard 🎶
🔸Kerry: Some days are just worthy of double-handed mocktails, rimmed with identifiable lipstick.
🔸Sarah: (Former teacher) cursive
🔸The diaper Sarah suggested we put under a hot food item to absorb moisture, and when we cleaned up, we were taken aback by the appropriate spillage of sweet potato. 🤪

🫶🏽 This is 100% representative of the team I've dreamt of curating, and it's reality. 🥹

✨ TLG as a Community Resource ✨

🍋 One of the most important things to us at The Lemon Grove is community. The community of families we support, the community of doulas as our team, the community of perinatal professionals we often collaborate with & refer within, the communities we feel called to advocate for. We love when our community "lines" get messy - the clients become friends, the clients become doulas on the team, the team becomes family, etc. And that's exactly what happened with doula Sarah L.! Recently Sarah needed something small but needed, for her family and the families she supports, and we were happy to help!

🌿 "I’m so lucky to have found Marissa H. and The Lemon Grove back in 2021 when we had my daughter. Marissa H. became a fast friend and plays a big part in my career change from teacher to doula!

Now that I’m back to working overnights, my husband is home with the kids. Our son is a ferocious eater and wakes up multiple times a night when mama isn’t home, despite being a very good sleeper otherwise.

When I told Marissa H. this, she quickly offered to lend us one of the infant scales so we can do some weighted feeds to try to solve this mystery.

Here’s to finding a solution and getting everyone some great sleep! -Sarah L."

🎉 Open Enrollment Season is Upon Us! 🎉

🍋 As we enter open enrollment season, here's a reminder on ways to cover doula services, as an investment in your perinatal care experience:
🔸FSA/HSA
🔸Add doula services to your registry in the form of cash funds, gift certificates, holiday gifts, or connecting the gifter with us directly - this is more common than you might think!
🔸Check with your employer to understand eligiblity for additional benefits, and specifically ask about doula services and/or supplemental benefits such as Carrot, Maven, or Progyny.
🔸More insurance plans are adding doula services, especially PPO plans.

🌿 Classes such as childbirth education, newborn care, lactation, Spinning Babies ®️ and more are often reimbursed and we're happy to help provide you with the documentation you need.

🍋 Have questions? Just ask! We're here for YOU!
