"I really cannot recommend Mama In The Making enough..."
... for first-time moms especially! I read a million books, looked at a million blogs, asked a million friends... but the advice I remember most was from Ashley & Mandy. They are really honest, down and dirty, and do not waste your time. The things I learned from them I would have never picked up on my own. Zoning our home was invaluable advice that would have taken me much longer to figure out on my own. The daily mom-hacks and videos were probably my favorite parts! Just take the class!

Ready to get started? We're ready to help.
We're Mandy & Ashley. We're both full-time working mamas who each welcomed 3 babies in 4 years. And despite being "Type A," overachieving planners, we found ourselves asking, "Why didn't anyone tell me about this?!" far too often as new mamas. With complementary backgrounds healthcare and business, we teamed up to create a fun, easy-to-follow solution that empowers pregnant women with everything we wish we would have known the first time around, so they can prepare better, stress less, and enjoy more.
Mandy is an Advanced Practice Nurse who has participated in hundreds of deliveries and Ashley holds a certification from Google in Coaching New & Expectant Parents through the transition into parenthood & return-to-work. We know exactly what women need (but usually don't get) to navigate the life-changing transition to motherhood. And we can't wait to show you!
“This course was incredible -- definitely a confidence booster and a MUST for first-time parents!"
I'm even re-watching with my partner! Ashley and Mandy were great, both with their backgrounds as moms and Mandy as a nurse. Thank you, thank you!

Here's What You'll Accomplish
Learn why prioritizing your wellbeing, sleep & sanity is the key to becoming a great mom. Discover the "Sleep Gremlins" that rob new mamas of legit opportunities to sleep and implement the strategies to prevent and minimize them once baby arrives.
Define your "Non Negotiables," anticipate how they'll change in your first few days and weeks postpartum, and take action now to ensure you have the systems in place and the support you need to prioritize them later.
You can save time, stress, and money with the right preparation. We'll teach you to define the key "zones" in your home where you'll be spending the most time after you leave the hospital. Use our simple checklists to ensure the critical supplies you'll need are stocked and within arm's reach to ease your physical recovery. Save yourself and your partner from the late-night CVS runs or the frantic Amazon Prime orders so many new mamas resort to!
Breastfeeding Challenges. Baby Blues. Fussy Baby. Relationship Stressors. Oh my! Discover the universal stress-inducing scenarios all new mamas face, but so few talk about and even fewer prepare for. Arm yourself with honest insight and a toolkit of strategies and solutions. Then develop a clear plan to tackle each -- with your partner's support -- in a way that feels right for you.
Take the time to sit down with your partner, share the plans you've made in previous modules and discuss the key questions you need to talk through before baby arrives. This module will help you communicate your expectations, align on your plan of action, and ensure you get the support you need. You'll also learn small but specific tips for making your partner feel involved and adored from Day 1.
A Look Inside
“I am so grateful that I took this class and would recommended this to any first-time moms-to-be!"
I have to say I was skeptical, wondering what I would learn in this course that I couldn’t ask other moms. Well to my surprise the topics covered are not those that come up in day to day conversations with new moms. I learned so much valuable information I couldn’t believe it -- a lot of stuff that is never talked about but really should be. You need to take care of yourself first in order to care for your baby. Knowing what to expect and how to tackle each situation with proper tools is priceless. I feel so more confident going into the postpartum phase than I did prior to taking this class.
