Moms' Care Circle

REGISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS:

Moms' Care Circle was created is response to the demands of the mothers in the community and the shortcomings of the modern urban life in supporting moms' needs. Using expressive forms of art, Jamii creates a safe space for moms to take a moment out of their busy daily lives and multitude of responsibilities to focus on themselves alone. In Moms' Care Circle, mothers reconnect with themselves, reflect on their evolving identities, and bond with fellow moms walking down the same journey with all its beautiful moments and milestones, joyous highs, and trying lows.

Each monthly session, an artist guides participants through a transformative art experience, breaks the ice, and facilitates the flow of meaningful conversations drawing from their own experience of motherhood. Moms leave the session feeling refreshed, renewed, energized, and inspired by the common threads in their individual journeys of motherhood and love.

For the duration of workshops, a team of certified caretakers provide moms with free off-site childcare at St. Lawrence Community Recreation Center, David Crombie Park, and St. Lawrence Toronto Public Library.
