Local Business Spotlight: Outer Village – An invaluable resource for new parents

Outer Village supports new families with personalized postpartum care and support

 

in their first year after baby’s arrival. Jenna McAnulty, founder of Outer Village, integrates doula wisdom with nutrition, community building, and child development expertise. 

 

In the months after delivery, there is so much to learn and focus on. Jenna assists families with: 

 

Healing

 

Newborn care

 

Breastfeeding

 

Whole family nutrition

 

Bonding

 

Sleep

 

and overall wellness. 

 

“No matter how blurry your vision of what you want to accomplish, or how little sleep you’re running on – I’m here for you,” she says. 

 

With options for 3, 6, or 9 months of support, Outer Village can soften the many transitions that happen in baby’s first year – sleep changes, developmental leaps, baby led weaning, searching for childcare, and more.

 

To sum it up, Jenna holds parents’ hands through all of the “what the heck am I doing” moments. 

 

We know Jenna as one of the most delightful and warm people you’ll ever meet. Her calm energy seems just right for this role. She also has a deep well of professional experience to draw from. She holds a B.A. in Child and Adolescent Development and an M.A. in Early Childhood Education from Mills College, and she spent over 15-years leading infant and child-centered programs, non-profits, and tech start-ups. She also trained for 2-years at UCSF Children’s Hospital as a Child Life practicum student, providing play therapy and procedure support for NICU and pediatric patients.
