AND BABY MAKES THREE…..(BUT IT FEELS LIKE 10!!) Led by: Jo-Ann McRogers, Psychotherapist, Doula

Details: How we define ourselves as men/women, fathers/mothers and partners is challenged through birthing and the process of becoming a family. Roles in the family, self, and other expectations, stress and communication styles take on lives of their own. Come be part of a presentation and discussion that can help add tools to your newly defined Family Toolbox. Participate in a discussion about the things that most books and prenatal classes don’t tell you about becoming a family!

Jo-Ann McRogers has been working compassionately in the field of wellbeing for 20 years. Her credentials and life experiences have brought her to a place of offering specialized therapy services to the birthing community.

We're helping to "Raise The Barre"

It may be freezing outside, but on February 22, it's gonna be hot in Toronto!!

We are happy to have had the opportunity to donate a big basket of baby goodies to the silent auction for Canada’s National Ballet School for the Raise the Barre – Havana Heat.

This year's Raise the Barre will be a Cuban-flavoured fundraising event hosted by NBS graduate and former National Ballet of Canada principal dancer Veronica Tennant, on Thursday, February 22, 2007 at the Academy of Spherical Arts, 38 Hanna Avenue.

For the winter-weary, this second annual Raise the Barre event offers a variety of intriguing activities. Card sharks can test their skill – and luck – at the Texas Hold ‘em poker tournament. Wine connoisseurs can indulge in a wine tasting seminar hosted by a professional sommelier.

The silent and art auctions will give guests the chance to bid on an assortment of luxurious lifestyle items and gift packages as well as a selection of contemporary art sure to suit all tastes, budgets and living spaces.
