You weren't built to do this alone. No mother was.
Held by the Village exists to bring back what modern motherhood stripped away: real people, showing up, in person, for each other. Not another app to scroll. Not another expert to follow. A village. Tended on purpose.
Find Your Path InYou don't need more information about motherhood. You've read the books. You've got the podcasts queued up. You know what "good" postpartum care is supposed to look like.
What you don't have is permission. Permission to ask for help. Permission to need people. Permission to be more than the role you're playing right now.
But it's more than permission too. It's community joy, the kind you build with your hands and your people, not the kind an algorithm hands you. It's stepping out of systems that were never built for mothers in the first place and back into something older and truer, grassroots, women holding women, matriarchy in its most practical form.
That's not a knowledge problem. That's a permission problem, and a belonging problem. And both are what we hand you here.
You're in it, or you're about to be. The tender season, the one where everyone hands you advice about the baby and nobody asks how you're doing. This is your corner of the village. Plans, rhythms, retreats, and eventually a whole app in your pocket, all built to hold you the way you were meant to be held.
Pregnant, or you know someone who is? Help them get every piece of their community support organized before the baby ever arrives, in one focused, ridiculously useful workshop.
No more scattered advice from ten different apps. One day, one plan, one village already lined up before you need it.

For parents of young children who are tired of winging every single day.
Rhythm and Ritual hands you simple, doable rhythms for your home, the kind that calm the chaos without turning your family into a schedule on a whiteboard. Waldorf-rooted, real-life tested, built for parents who need less noise and more flow.
For the first year and a half. Bite sized pieces of everything that matters most, postpartum support, postpartum Pilates, baby bonding, and rhythms, all in one place, all in the pockets of time you actually have.

This one's about who you are outside the role of motherhood. Three days to remember the woman with opinions, hobbies, a loud laugh, and plans, because she never left, she just got buried under the job.
Untamed and undone, on purpose. This retreat is for the mother ready to get physical, get uncomfortable, and get free, jungle and ocean as your training ground. Think mycelium, not manicure, everything here is about the hidden network of women holding each other up.
Same untamed spirit, mountain edition. Cold water, high altitude, hot springs, and a version of adventure that reminds you exactly what you're capable of.
Remember camp? Bug bites, bonfires, staying up too late with people who got you instantly? We're bringing it back, just for us. June 2027, Lakes Basin, Plumas County, California. (Name still coming, placeholder for now.)
You already know the value community brings. You already know that when we're supported, seen, and moving our resources like an ecosystem instead of hoarding them alone, everything gets easier. You've known this for a while. You're the one who starts the grassroots movements.
We believe in the power of community care and community joy. We believe in a different way of doing this, one that doesn't run on burnout or bounce-back culture. We believe modern systems have conditioned mothers to doubt themselves, and we want to be part of changing that, locally, in person, one circle at a time.
Perhaps you're a natural community connector, the one who shows up, the one with every resource a new mom might need already in your back pocket. Or maybe you're a birth worker, a doula, a nanny, a lactation consultant, already doing the hardest, most sacred work there is, looking for a second stream of income that doesn't pull you away from the calling that brought you here in the first place.
Different starting points, same destination. This is where you become the one who builds the village on purpose.
Village tending is a lost art. It's also a learnable skill, and a real income stream.
Village Tenders trains birth workers, doulas, lactation consultants, and postpartum caregivers, and honestly, anyone who's a natural tender of the village and wants the skills to make it official, to lead in-person mother circles in their own communities. You don't need a credential to care about families. You just need this training. Eight modules. Real credentials. Real impact you can watch happen in your own town.
Tuition options and payment plans are covered on your consultation call, so you'll know exactly what you're deciding on before you decide anything.

Not ready for the full training, but ready to stop guessing? Start here.
Tend Your Village is a bite sized entry point, a short, focused workshop that hands you your first real gathering, from the invite to the conversation starters to the follow up. No overwhelm, no reinventing the wheel, just a clear first step into village tending.
The training, in person, immersive, with your future circle of fellow tenders right beside you. Come recharge yourself and walk away with a business ready to fly in your own community.
(Waitlist only for now, we're just collecting names.)
If you're a birth worker, coach, or community leader whose people would love what we offer, our affiliate program pays twenty five percent commission for our founding cohort (average $75 to $500 per sale). You share what you already believe in, we handle the rest.
Become a Founding AffiliateThe leadership training isn't right for everyone, and Kerry would rather tell you that on a call than take your money and find out later. Bring your questions. Bring your skepticism.
Book a Consultation With KerryNo pitch, no pressure. If it's not a fit, Kerry will say so and point you somewhere better. Tuition options and payment plans are covered on the call.
Local workshops and events happen right here throughout the year, plus mommy and baby Pilates, and private Pilates sessions for postpartum recovery, including pelvic floor recovery. Real village tending, no screen required.
