Opportunity to support research!

✨ Calling all parents and parents-to-be! ✨

Two important research studies are currently recruiting participants to help improve understanding and support for perinatal mental health:

🍼 Newborns and Postpartum Sleep (NAPS) Study
Researchers are exploring how sleep changes after childbirth impact memory and coping. Participation is virtual, takes about 2 hours over 2–3 weeks, and includes up to $70 compensation.

💭 ADHD & Pregnancy Study
Harvard researchers are studying how ADHD and related experiences affect pregnancy. This 30-minute online survey includes $5 compensation.

Your participation helps advance vital research that supports parents’ mental health and well-being. 💙

Our own Meredith Pollaro, OTR/L, IBCLC will be presenting at the Camp Homegrown Conference on Thursday, September 4th.

Her session, “Farm to table: Healthy eating for Moms and babies” acknowledges that supporting mothers through prenatal and postpartum is vital for their success, confidence, and long-term health. Encouraging local, sustainable eating helps boost milk supply, energy levels, and infant health. When introducing babies to solid foods, the same principles apply. Focus on variety, colorful plates, and nutrient-rich options especially healthy fats, proteins, and iron—to promote lifelong healthy eating habits for the whole family.

Camp Homegrown is a day of cultivating hope and health in maternal and child care. Together, we’ll grow stronger communities by nurturing moms, babies, and families with local solutions for a thriving future. Through hands-on activities, engaging discussions, and locally-rooted initiatives, we’ll foster sustainable change and build stronger futures. Let’s grow wellness from the ground up and ensure every family thrives with the support they deserve.

A big shout out to IBCLC Serena, who did a baby wearing demo at the event. Did you know we help support families with baby wearing? Baby wearing has so many benefits for caregivers and babies!
