This place has been a GOD SEND for me and my little family. We are here from the east coast with our first baby.
Reasons I love this place:
- It's AFFORDABLE. It's less than 100 bucks a month for UNLIMITED CLASSES. My sister lives in Austin, TX and pays $300 a month for her play groups and can only go three times a week. My other sister who lives in NYC pays the same. Break it down monthly and you'll see it's worth it. I go daily and sometimes more than once a day!
- Everyone there is so nice. I've had issues from breast feeding to sleep routines to anything you can dream of. There has always been someone there to answer my questions and help. I was even able to find an amazing nanny thanks to the network at the center.
- They have the best products for your baby in the store. From what I've seen, the prices are comparable to Amazon - some are even cheaper. The staff there even help me with items that they have but didn't purchase from them. I really needed help with my carrier (bought on amazon) and I got a full on lesson.
- I have been able to create a social circle/network of great friends to help me during this time. We meet at play group and have lunch after, we text in the middle of the night when things get tough and we support each other through each phase.
- The facility is GORGEOUS.
- When I met with Caroline (lactation consultant) she not only answered all of my questions and gave me advice but has been available at any time to answer questions (via text/call/in person). She's invested in my journey of breastfeeding and is a consistent resource for me rather than having it end when the appointment was over. Jennifer has also been amazing during the classes I've attended.
I couldn't have dreamed up of a more supportive environment for a new mother. DayOne has given me the confidence to be a better mother and has decreased my anxiety tremendously. When they say it takes a village, they mean it and DayOne is my village. Let it be yours too!
