Austin Yoga Lounge + Maddie the Doula
The Village
a 6-month prenatal & postpartum experience
for women due in June and July
Eight women · Two doulas · Six months
Why we built this
We kept seeing the same thing. Women take a birth class, feel prepared, and then the baby comes and suddenly they're home alone. The postpartum support groups exist, but the reality is you're three weeks out, still in a diaper, barely sleeping, and someone tells you about a group across town. You're supposed to walk into a room full of strangers and say you're not okay?
Most women just don't go
What if the village already existed before the baby came?
The Village exists because your support system shouldn't start after the baby arrives. You meet your people while you're pregnant so by the time you're postpartum, they already know your name, your due date, your story. They're already your village
What's included
Six months of real support
Four Thursday evening sessions
6:30 pm, 90 minutes each. Two sessions on birth led by Lindsey, two on postpartum led by Maddie. Women only, so you can be honest about what you're feeling without filtering. Topics include preparing your body and mind for birth, navigating the hospital, advocating for yourself, what the first weeks postpartum actually look like, feeding, healing, hormones, and setting up real support before baby arrives
Partner involvement
Your partner stays in the loop through take-home exercises designed to be completed together, plus separate partner class opportunities at the studio
Three prenatal yoga classes
Included at Austin Yoga Lounge so you can keep moving, breathing, and building trust in your body through the third trimester
Home visit in August
Lindsey and Maddie visit each participant at home with a postpartum care package. Not a text that says "let me know if you need anything." An actual person at your door during the most tender weeks
Monthly meetups
September, October, November. The group continues meeting with babies in tow. By then you've known these women for months. The postpartum meetups aren't overwhelming because you're not walking into a room of strangers, you're showing up to your village
Who this is for
You already know if this is yours
You're due in June or July 2026. You live in the Austin area. You want more than a one-time birth class. Maybe you don't have family nearby, maybe you do but you want women who are in it at the same time. You want to feel prepared for birth and supported through postpartum by people who actually know you
