The Early Years

A 6-Week Support Group for Moms of Young Children
Fridays, 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM | Starting September 18th
Natural Resources, San Francisco

For moms of toddlers and preschoolers — the years when the baby fog has lifted but the mental load has quietly taken over.

Some seasons of motherhood are just a lot.

The mental tabs that never close. The toddler meltdowns you didn't see coming. The preschool drop-off you somehow still cry at. The invisible work nobody names and nobody thanks you for. The love that coexists, somehow, with the exhaustion and the quiet feeling that you've lost a little bit of yourself in all of it.

The Early Years is a six-week support group for moms of children ages 1–5 who are craving a real, honest space to exhale, feel seen, and connect with other moms who are in exactly the same season.

This is not a parenting class. There's no curriculum to follow, no advice to dispense, no pressure to perform or have it together. It's a place to show up exactly as you are and find that you are not alone.

For moms of children ages 1–5 who are experiencing:

• The mental and physical demands of the toddler and preschool years

• The invisible mental load of motherhood

• The challenges of raising more than one child

• Mom guilt, rage, loneliness, or emotional overwhelm

• Feeling like you've lost yourself in the day-to-day

• Wondering who you are beyond being "Mom"

Together, we'll explore:

• The invisible mental load

• Sibling dynamics, temperament differences, and parenting multiple children

• Mom rage, guilt, and the feelings we rarely talk about

• Identity after the newborn stage

• Letting go of the "good mom" myth

• Reconnecting with yourself and finding more joy in everyday life

What you'll walk away with:

• A sense of connection with moms who understand your world

• Permission to be honest — maybe for the first time in a while

• Tools and perspective to help you navigate the highs and lows

• Maybe a few women who become your people

Many groups continue meeting weekly well beyond the initial series — and often count the mamas in their cohort as their most trusted companions in the wild journey of parenting and life.
