BIG shoutout to our amazing team members David, Sonja, and Leaha for volunteering today with the Department of Neighborhoods Columbus and Keep Columbus Beautiful during a South Side Storm Clean-Up.

Despite the rain, they rolled up their sleeves and helped clear trash and tree debris left behind by last week's storms.

Thank you, David, Sonja, and Leaha, for representing CelebrateOne and showing what community care looks like in action.

As Columbus continues to recover from this week's severe storms, we know many families are dealing with challenges.

Whether you're facing power outages, disrupted childcare, damaged homes, or unexpected changes to your daily routines, keeping your family safe remains a priority.

Remember safe sleep: No matter where you're staying, babies are safest sleeping alone, on their back, in a crib, bassinet, or pack and play with a firm, flat sleep surface and no blankets, pillows, or toys.

Give yourself grace: Changes in routine can be stressful for both parents and babies. Your little one may be more fussy or unsettled than usual. Take moments to rest when you can, ask for help, and remember that your safety and well-being matter more than perfect routines.

Stay connected to support: If you need help finding resources or navigating challenges during the recovery process, our CelebrateOne Connectors are here to help connect families to community services and support.

Need assistance? Visit celebrateone.org to find our referral form.

We're thinking of everyone affected by the storms and wishing our community safety and strength as recovery continues.

Pregnancy comes with a lot of questions, and your prenatal appointments are the perfect time to ask them.

Before your next visit, consider talking with your health care provider about:
• Your blood pressure and overall health
• Medications that are safe during pregnancy
• Ways to manage stress
• Tests you may need and what they can tell you
• Nutrition and healthy habits to support you and your baby

Saving your questions ahead of time can help you make the most of every appointment.
