You need this free postpartum yoga class & a back to school freshie!
The fourth trimester is tough. No one really prepares you for it. When my kiddo was little, as a single mom, some days it was just him and me all the time. It can be isolating and lonely.
One thing that helped me was a postpartum yoga class. My son was just a few weeks old, and I thought my friend was crazy for dragging me there. But let me tell you, it was healing. It was safety. It was calm. When I walked in, I felt like, "Oh, okay, I can do this."
So, when I heard about this new FREE pop-up class with a fellow doula and super chill mama Erin Pasquet, I had to shout from the rooftops to let everyone know. Postpartum people, run to bask in the glow (ERM sweat) with other new parents, stretch, bend, and kiss your baby. And if they happen to be a little fussy, somehow that magic flowing from Erin will help to soothe them.
When you're there, you can take in the new and gorgeous sunlit space for kiddies! Head over to The Learning Experience at 417 W 35th St on 8/29 at 10 am. Space is definitely limited, so don't wait to sign up!
KIDS HAIR UNRULY ?
Book your “Back to school freshie”
"My kid has a head of hair. I mean, it's like my dream hair – thick, silky, and long. It’s been this way since he was pretty little. When it came time to get him a haircut, I did what most people do and went to a kids' place (which is now closed). I wanted to cry – they didn't know how to cut it. I know it’s just hair, but well, it didn't need to look like a bowl was put on his head.
Cut to a few years later, and I'm still trying to find someone who knows how to give my kiddo a cool haircut – cutting into the waves, not straight across (eek). So I stumbled into MADE MAN in Chelsea, put him in that cute little car, and hoped for the best. They gave him the cutest rocker shag you've ever seen. We've been going ever since. So if you know me, you know I have to tell everyone about something if I think it’s awesome so we decided to team up with MADE MAN for a fun little treat for you guys!
Whether you're booking your 'back-to-school #freshie' or your little rockstar's first cut, head to MADE MAN. With 7 locations around the city, you're bound to find one near you. And they're doing something really cool now through 9/15 – if you book your #freshie or #dadandlittledude #freshie, you'll get a super cute tee and a goodie bag filled with organic goodies from YumEarth juice boxes and other fun treats.
When you book your appointment, make sure to enter your child's size for the t-shirt, or they'll need to guess. And it’s a cool tee (nothing cheesy with these guys). We can’t wait to see your #imamademan #freshies. Send us your pics after you go and use the hashtag – you'll be entered to win a cool prize!
