September Newsletter
Hello Radiant people,
Somehow September is already here! Radiant has another month of classes, opportunities to gather, and cozy Wednesday mornings ahead.
What’s happening this September
Postpartum Play Café Every Wednesday · 10 a.m.–1 p.m. A free, relaxed morning for postpartum families to have coffee, connect,and let the little ones play.
Birth with an Epidural Thursday, September 3 · 6:30–8 p.m. A pay-what-you-can prenatal class about preparing for a positive, informed birth with an epidural.
Pregnancy Circle September 10 & 24 · 6:30–8 p.m. A free, informal gathering to connect with other pregnant people over tea and conversation.
Breastfeeding Basics Thursday, September 17 · 6:30–8 p.m. A pay-what-you-can class to help you feel more prepared for the early days of feeding your baby.
Birth doula bookings are open
After stepping away from birth work for a few years, I’m officially supporting births again—and beginning to book families for late 2026 and into 2027.
My birth doula package includes comprehensive prenatal preparation, continuous support through labour and birth, on-call availability, backup doula coverage, and postpartum care.
If you're looking for a doula, or someone in your life who is expecting wants extra support, I’d love to connect and see if we are a good fit.
Birth doula care starts at $2,200, with payment plans available.
Need an extra set of hands this September?
I have a few morning postpartum shifts available this month, along with Friday and Saturday overnight availability.
Think of daytime support like having a mother’s helper, with specialized postpartum knowledge and newborn-care experience. I can care for your baby while you rest or shower, prepare something to eat, wash bottles, tackle baby laundry, support feeding, help with older children, or make the house feel more manageable.
Daytime care is $40/hour with a three-hour minimum. Overnight care is $44/hour in eight-hour shifts.
Send me an email to hello@radiantcentre.ca to ask about September availability.
Help us keep free programs free
Pregnancy Circle and Postpartum Play Café are offered at no cost so families can participate without worrying about their budget.
If you'd like to support Radiant, we welcome donations. Financial contributions are accepted via e-transfer to hello@radiantcentre.ca. We also gratefully accept donations of everyday supplies that help keep our space welcoming and accessible. Right now, we're especially in need of paper towel, toilet paper, coffee grounds, clorox wipes, and individually packaged snacks for families visiting the centre.
Thank you for helping make Radiant a place where everyone feels welcome.
