Everyone’s preparing for baby.

This one’s for you, mama.

Preparing for Maternity Leave Giveaway

We spend SO much time preparing for the baby. The bottles. The sound machine. The tiny clothes. The million things on the registry.

But what about preparing for the mama?

Hi! I’m Kate, the founder of The Next Step Studio. I’m living this season of motherhood, too—the feeding, the pumping, the figuring-it-out-as-you-go, and the beautiful moments mixed in with the ones nobody quite prepares you for.

So I put together a little giveaway to help one expecting or new mama feel a bit more prepared and supported. The bundle includes NUK baby bottles, a portable sound machine, perineal recovery spray, a few of my favorite hydration sticks, and one FREE month inside The Membership Portal.

Want to enter? Fill out the quick form . That's it. And if you know a mama who could use a little extra support, send this her way!

A little support beyond the baby registry.

One mama will receive:

  • NUK baby bottles

  • A portable sound machine

  • Perineal recovery spray

  • A few of my favorite hydration sticks

  • Maternity Leave Prep Guide

  • One free month inside The Next Step Studio Membership Portal
