Core Beliefs

Milestones mommy and me group is grounded in these core beliefs:

1. In becoming a mother, have an unspoken bond with other mothers. Your journey is individually unique, yet simultaneously part of a universal experience that expands across race, religion, culture, borders, and time.
2. In becoming a mom, you have taken on a responsibility much larger than yourself. But that you, as an individual, still very much matter. In many ways, you matter more than you ever have before.
3. There is no such thing as a perfect mother, and that there is not one correct way to parent. That it’s not enough to just hear this, but that true peace and joy in parenting is when you can fully feel this.
4. Parenting is not about what you know, but who you are. That you, as you are, are the person your little needs. Your love, your attention, your acceptance. You are the greatest gift you can give.
5. Knowledge should feel empowering. The information provided here is based on scientific data + research from the fields of psychology and child development. Information about honoring the developing brain and human experience. It’s meant to act as both a compass and shield as you shift through the chatter and noise, to find your own parenting values, choices, and identity.
6. We’re never done learning. That because we continue to learn we will continue to change + evolve. That this is good.
7. Struggling doesn’t mean something is wrong. That struggling is a part of life. It is hard and it can hurt. But that it is necessary to go through, to feel it, to grow from it. That we are designed to survive it.
8. Things are always messier than they appear. That no one has it all figured out. That if you look around, you will find we are all in this experiment together.
9. We are meant to go through life together. Not just side by side, but truly connected. That this isn’t just a desire, but a need. That happiness is only real when shared.
10. That bringing together + building up confident, authentic mamas is the key to saving humanity one little human + unstoppable mama at a time.
