Our Title Sponsors

We are proud to have Park Nicollet and HealthPartners as our title sponsors for this event! From pre-conception care through pregnancy, birth and beyond, HealthPartners and Park Nicollet are dedicated to partnering with you. Their compassionate teams recognize this is a special time and will support you, your baby and your choices. Experienced ob/gyn doctors, nurse practitioners and certified nurse midwives offer different care team options. When it’s time to deliver, their hospital birth centers provide you with a comfortable environment and honor your birth preferences, from water birth to vaginal birth after cesarean. Because they know there are many emotions and new experiences that come along with having a baby, they also have breastfeeding and mental health support for moms. With a new baby, every moment is big. Let’s make good happen, together.

Breck School | Twin Cities Mom Collective

We are so thankful to Breck School for being our host sponsor again this year! Breck is a preschool – grade 12, private school where all grades are joined together in one vibrant community on our beautiful campus in Golden Valley, Minnesota. At Breck, each week, each month, each term, each year brings new opportunities to reimagine, reinvent, and reanimate learning — both for its students and for the school. When perpetually learning students encounter this perpetually learning school, they see the very process of learning not just as a prerequisite for success, but the lens through which they view the entire world.

Presenting Sponsors

We are delighted to welcome professionals and experts to lead eight breakout sessions throughout the morning and afternoon. Regardless of what stage of motherhood you’re in, there’s always something to ask or something new to learn. We encourage and welcome all questions during these sessions. Thank you to our presenters below!

Table Sponsors

We are passionate about connecting moms to fabulous local resources and great businesses and products that we personally love. We hope that you will take the time to visit with each of these sponsors; from newborn and birth photography to local baby goods to tips for breastfeeding success, our partners are really looking forward to meeting and mingling with you all at this event!

Food Sponsors

We can’t wait to bring back our cravings bar this year! It will be full of sweet and salty treats to satisfy those cravings you may be having! From snacks and desserts to coffee and other drinks, you’ll be sure to find something you love!

Want to increase your chance to win? We are partnering again with Emerge Mothers Academy to give you an opportunity to give back. Emerge Mothers Academy is a local non-profit serving teen and single mothers.
