Bringing up Baby

With Child Spa

With Child Spa!

What to expect when you’re expecting? Lots of unsolicited advice. Your mom, his mom, Aunt Mary, the checkout lady at Whole Foods — everyone has an opinion.

After a while, it all starts to sound like Greek.

Unravel the mysteries of parenthood at With Child, a new holistic center and spa for new and expecting parents, where they do everything but have your baby for you.

Classes include childbirth education, prenatal and post-partum yoga, infant massage, breastfeeding, and baby CPR. Spa services — bouncing-back-from-baby massages, natural nail care, acupuncture, hypnotherapy, and skin care treatments — use the spa’s own line of adorably named, baby-focused products.

With Child even offers doula services. A doula — the word comes from ancient Greek — is a birthing assistant who offers in-home support after labor.

Finally. Some Greek a new mom can understand.


With Child, 1165 North Clark Street, Suite 614, between Elm and Division Streets (312-867-3833).
