Welcome to the Nest…

The Nest has been the premier Mommy & Me program in the South Bay Area of Los Angeles for over 13 years. We have fun and nurturing boutique style weekly classes in Hermosa Beach, California, filled with support, laughter, new friendships, fun traditions, and the latest research-based information on parenting your baby. The Nest is where new mommies and their babies come once a week to make new friends, learn about parenting , share new things and feel supported and encouraged!

Warning!! In our classes you will have fun, laugh, smile and, yes, of course tear up from time to time. But that's what it's all about: knowing you are in a room of friends who know exactly what you're going through because... WE DO! It's been said every series because it's true... the friends you make in our Mommy & Me classes are your life line to sanity. Through the good and the challenging times there's nothing like mommy friends!

Not ready to come to class in-person yet? Or do you live somewhere where a mommy and me program like ours isn’t an option? We are now offering virtual groups! All the information of mommy and me, a safe and trusted place to ask your questions, and a place to build community… but you can stay in your pajamas and baby can nap in their crib. ;)

In-Person Class Stats….

  • 10 classes in each enrollment session

  • 4 sessions each year

  • 90 minute classes

  • Topics, tips, and guest speakers are different each series of classes so that moms can continue to enroll, learn, and grow with our community throughout baby's first 12-18 months. Most Nest moms enroll consistently through their baby's first year and beyond - moving through our classes and program with the mommy and baby friends that they've developed over time.

Our Team

Our team of instructors are in the parenting trenches with you: we’ve struggled with breast-feeding, had babies with colic and toddlers who tantrum, navigated marriage after baby, had more sleepless nights than we can count, and we get it. We get that being a mom is the greatest gift and also the greatest challenge that many of us will ever face.

In class we will give you practical tried-and-true tips and tricks that have worked on our own children, will give you research-backed advice on child-rearing, but above all look forward to learning how you pave your own way as a mom.
