What parents say
Family Picnic is a great place. I took a birthing class there which was helpful and inclusive. It focused on evidence based techniques including stretches. I also joined a mom and baby group there after the birth of my child and found my people.
Loved our childbirth weekend intensive with Leila. Very informative and empowering. Leila also ended up being our day-of doula and was wonderful at taking care of us and keeping the energy light and positive. Had such positive experiences with Chicago picnic that we plan to do the mommy and baby group in January!
My Husband and I attended a 5-week parenting class at Family Picnic. It was highly educational, a wonderful, welcoming environment, and the instructor, Rebecca Brown, was both knowledgeable and approachable.
We enjoyed our experience at Family Picnic with Rebecca! We learned so much about the birthing process and as first time parents it made us feel much for confident going into our final months of pregnancy.
