The Parent Collective
The Parent Collective was founded by Jessica Hill as a result of her personal experience during pregnancy. Jessica was pregnant with her first child in the UK, and as an American woman, she began to feel anxious that she was going to have her baby so far away from family support. Her friends suggested that she register for a prenatal class series called The NCT, which was organized by neighborhood and due date — allowing all couples to form support networks prior to their babies being born. This series of classes proved invaluable to her and her husband during pregnancy and new parenthood.
Now, Jessica hopes to create a similar community for expectant parents with The Parent Collective.

Milk Street Lactation
Your instincts are just as important as the "rules" when it comes to breastfeeding.
You are expecting a baby. You want to be ready. Where to start? Google? Nope. Instagram hashtag search? No way! Tik Tok video? Absolutely not! While there are many high-quality providers, we all know there is also a lot of bad advice! Breastfeeding can be one of the most rewarding yet challenging aspects of motherhood. One of the most important things you can do is to find help!
Let us guide you through the process and help you develop the confidence to shape your experience to fit you and your baby.
