A thoughtful space for connection, reflection, and support in the early years of motherhood.

Our New Moms Circle at The Little Sandbox is a 6-week, thoughtfully guided, small-group experience for moms and their little ones, ages 0-15 months. It’s designed to offer space to slow down, reflect, and connect. Build community in a peaceful setting, find support through meaningful conversations, and explore simple, research-based practices for self-care, feeling grounded, navigating hard seasons, and processing the joys, challenges, and identity shifts of motherhood.

About The New Moms Circle:

Motherhood in the early years can be meaningful, joyful, and challenging—all at once. In the midst of caring for your baby and managing daily life, it’s easy to lose space to process your own thoughts, emotions, and identity.

Our New Moms Circle is a small-group experience designed to give you that space.

This 6–week group brings together moms of children ages 0–15 months for guided conversation, research-based practices, and genuine connection—so you can feel more grounded, supported, and aligned.

What Makes This Different

Most classes in the early years focus on your baby.

This one is focused on you.

Our New Moms Circle is mother-centered and discussion-based. It’s not a lecture or traditional parenting class—it’s a space to slow down, reflect, and be in community with other moms who understand this stage.

What You’ll Experience

• Thoughtful, facilitated discussions around real-life motherhood themes

• Opportunities for connection with other moms in the same stage

• Space to process identity shifts, expectations, and challenges

• Simple mindfulness and reflection practices

• A supportive, welcoming, peaceful environment

• Space to play and connect before and after class

Session Flow and Structure

Here’s a typical rhythm of a 75-minute session:

• 10:00 – Arrival, welcome, and opening check-in

• 10:15 – Guided discussion, weekly topic and practice

• 11:05 – Reflections, take-home ideas (optional homework), and closing

Each week, the structure offers a balance of meaningful conversation, practical tools and activities, and space to connect.

Babies Are Welcome!

This is a space designed with both you and your baby in mind.

Sessions take place in a private, comfortable room with plenty of space for feeding, moving around, and letting your baby play nearby while you participate. The room contains a private sandbox with fun toys to keep your little one entertained. 

Whether your little one is nursing, sleeping, crying, or exploring, you are always welcome to tend to their needs freely. You’re welcome to:

• Nurse or feed your baby as needed

• Let your baby play or move around during the session

• Step away to care for your baby at any time

There is no expectation of uninterrupted participation—this is a space that makes room for real life with a little one.
