Introducing Childcare at Toronto Yoga Mamas

1/19/2016

High quality, inexpensive on-site Childcare is now available for mamas at our Leslieville location.

Last week we welcomed our childcare lead Maggie in piloting our brand new childcare program, and are very excited to see this develop and make our studio even more accessible to our mamas.

Details:

Childcare costs $6 per hour per child.
Parents must be on site the entire time their child is in our care
Childcare runs Tuesdays 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. & Thursdays 12:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.
Our capacity is 5 children so do sign up in advance!

Who's it for?

Available to children 4 weeks to 6 years old whose mamas are on-site utilizing our services.
Second-time mamas attending a prenatal, babies or crawlers class with an older babe needing supervision
Mums looking for affordable childcare during a solo Vinyasa practice
Mom or Dad taking advantage of our wellness services.

Know that your babe is socializing with other babes, acclimating to new spaces and faces, and becoming more comfortable with childcare.

Tips:

Drop by 10-15 minutes before your class or wellness appointment to ensure you and your baby are comfortable and have everything you need
Please label things that come into the childcare space with your child to avoid confusion.

Especially on hectic mornings, it can be hard to look too far ahead into your day’s routine. If there is something the childcare provider can do to approximate your child’s home routine in our space, please let us know. It makes life easier for babe, staff and mama alike, and lessens the baby’s innate instinct to begin fussing during savasana :)

Prenatal Acupressure Workshop For Couples

1/19/2016

Join instructor Justine Sipprell Sunday, February 7th at our East End studio for our Prenatal Acupressure Workshop for Couples.

Prepare for your birth by learning acupressure and Shiatsu massage techniques to help you through labour and ease discomfort in the last few weeks of your pregnancy.

Why we love this workshop:

Acupressure points can help with a induction, dilation pain relief, retained placenta, and milk 'let down'
Small workshop size means instructor has time to work with each couple
Partners will feel more confident about how to support Mama during labour
Leave each session feeling relaxed

Justine is a ‘Well Mother’ teacher, Shiatsu practitioner and Doula. She has attended many births and has taught midwives and doulas ‘Shiatsu massage’ techniques in British hospitals and in workshops in the UK and Spain. She has been teaching ‘Birth Prep’ classes for the last eight years.

A Note About yoga Mamas' Cancellation Policies

Please note that we do not offer refunds. Each event/course/training/wellness appt has it's own specific cancellation policy which is listed on each registration page. Please take the time to read these in full prior to registering. Each event/appointment that we run is in partnership with a practitioner who is focusing their independent career in pre and postnatal health. This is their beautiful livelihood. This is why we have these policies in place. Thank you very much for your understanding. Jamie Kalynuik, Founder of Yoga Mamas
