Nurture Fest 2023 was an evening of beautiful summer light, yummy food and 25 plus amazing breastmilk mamas! Connecting with other mamas, getting beautiful photos done and learning about other service providers here in OKC metro.
It was the culmination of long days of planning, dreaming and making a beautiful evening for breastmilk mamas come to reality. This event was such a dream come true. I’ve had the vision for a breastfeeding photo event supporting mothers and showing them how amazing they are for a long time. And seeing it actually happen brought tears of joy!
Seeing strong women show case how beautiful and amazing they are for the work they have done was a gift. And getting to celebrate these mamas made my heart full!
You can read a bit more about the vision and heart behind this event over here where I shared my heart behind making Nurture Fest 2023 happen. And I am so excited to see the Nurture Mama OKC community grow. (Want to be a part? Join our Facebook Group for mamas here!)
There will be more annual Nurture Fests for sure and I’m excited about developing it into more play dates, breastfeeding support, baby wearing support etc – all those things to help mamas!
