Mama and Baby Herbs
Mama and Baby Herbs
Wild remedies for wise mamas and their little ones.
The women before us knew exactly which plants to reach for. Which herb calmed a colicky belly. Which oil soothed a rashy bottom. Which bath brought sleep to a baby who had forgotten how.
This is the workshop that remembers it all for you.
Mama and Baby Herbs is a practical, hands-on herbal workshop for mothers who want to build a home apothecary that actually works — for themselves and for their babies. No overwhelm. No chemistry degree. Just the plants that have tended mothers and their little ones for centuries, made simple and accessible in your own kitchen.
This workshop works as a standalone or as a natural sequel to Preparing for Postpartum.
What you will learn:
- How to use herbs safely alongside breastfeeding — what’s safe, what’s not, and why
- The key herbs for mama — milk supply, emotional recovery, energy, womb healing
- The key herbs for baby — colic and digestion, sleep and nervous system, skin healing, immune support
- How to make your own remedies — teas, herbal baths, balms, and baby-safe glycerite tinctures
- How to build a simple home apothecary without spending a fortune
What you will go home with:
You leave with five handmade remedies — made together during the workshop:
✦ Milk Maker Tea Blend — a galactagogue dry herb blend for brewing daily at home
✦ Elderberry Immune Syrup — a warming antiviral syrup simmered and bottled during the workshop
✦ Baby-Safe Colic Blend — a dry herb tea mama drinks, passing calming compounds through breast milk
✦ Herbal Bath Soak Bag — a muslin bag of herbs and salts for mama or baby’s bath
✦ Nervous System Tea Blend — a calming adaptogenic blend for the depleted postpartum nervous system
** plus a full printed workbook with all the herb profiles, age guidelines, methods, and recipes as your permanent reference guide for every stage of motherhood.
