For moms due in late February & March 2027 Ten families, one season, and support that stays with you from your last weeks of pregnancy into the first months with your baby. The Village is a small-group cohort led by Lindsey DiCello, AYL founder and birth doula, and Maddie, a Best in Birth winner for both Best Birth Doula and Best Postpartum Doula. It comes from the studio named Best Postpartum Support Group at the 2026 Best in Birth Awards. Each gathering starts with food on the table and time to settle in.
