Forget the diaper raffles and puff-painted bibs. This isn’t your traditional baby shower. In this episode of Tend and Befriend, Deborah dives into the heart of nesting parties: intimate gatherings that blend community, preparation, and emotional support for expecting parents.
You’ll learn:
- What a nesting party is and why it matters
- How to create a calm, supportive environment (and who to invite)
- Practical tips for meal prep, baby gear setup, and hospital bag packing
- Why this kind of care can make the postpartum transition smoother and more supported
Whether you’re pregnant and craving real help, or you’re a doula looking for meaningful ways to show up for your clients, this episode will leave you inspired to bring the “village” back to birth.
