Support Groups

Our support groups offer a safe, inclusive space for community members to connect, share experiences, and learn alongside other pregnant, postpartum, and lactating parents. We offer a Breastfeeding Support Group and a Parent Support Group—both open to the community and designed to provide connection, education, and support during pregnancy and the first year of parenthood.

If you have not done so, please register for our free Breastfeeding Basics class. The class covers the necessary foundational knowledge to get breastfeeding off to a good start and is offered virtually and in person.

Available Support Groups

Breastfeeding Support Group

The breastfeeding support group is for nursing or pumping families who would like additional support, encouragement, and guidance from an International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant® (IBCLC®). You will receive support and guidance in a nonjudgmental atmosphere with other lactating families. Babies are welcome and you may feed or attend to your baby as needed during the session.

You’re welcome to attend if your baby is getting care in the NICU. We can answer your questions and help you with your milk supply.

The group meets every 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month from 9:00 - 10:15am in the 1701 N. George Mason Drive lobby classroom. Registration is not necessary but please email childbirtheducation@vhchealth.org to let us know you will join. Bring a support person if you'd like.

Parent Support Group

The transition to parenthood can bring a wide range of emotions, questions, and adjustments—well beyond the postpartum period. This group supports new parents from birth through the first year, providing a safe and inclusive space to discuss mental and emotional well-being, adjusting to parenthood, infant care, relationships, and life changes. Participants can share experiences, gain support, and access resources in a compassionate, nonjudgmental environment.

The support group is virtual and is held every 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month from 10:00-11:15am on Zoom.
