community

The Mothership believes in the strength of community and the empowerment that comes from building connections within our community. ​We offer several community groups that are open to the public and free of charge. We also maintain Asheville Mothership blog, Transmissions from The Mothership podcast, and The Mothership Community Facebook group as part of our virtual community.

New Mama Circle

This is a twice-monthly gathering to connect with other new mamas and discuss a rotating list of postpartum topics. No judgment, just unconditional support. (Free. )

Breast & Bottle Feeding
​ Support

At Breast/bottle feeding Café, the other moms will not mind if you are late, leaking milk, and have been wearing the same yoga pants for the past few days. It's okay, we totally get it. Join us for tea, coffee, conversation, and community. 

NICU Parents Circle

If your baby is still in the NICU, you're figuring out things at home, or you would like to spend time with others who understand, join us to share experiences, connection, and community. We know that having a baby in the NICU is different from what most parents expect, and finding support is important. Come as you are; we get it. FREE, 1st Monday of the month, 6pm.
