A Message from Amy

Dear Ella community,

I am writing to share some important news with you. Firstly, my husband Jeff and I are thrilled to announce that we are expecting our first child. Secondly, an opportunity has arisen with respect to Ella’s Leaside location. While it was completely unexpected that these two events would coincide, it has caused me to do some serious reflecting on maintaining operations in Ella’s current location.

I have considered this carefully and have concluded that now is an appropriate time to take a ‘short pause’ in Ella programming, and an ideal opportunity to enhance Ella’s focus on our core programs and core curriculum in order to more effectively meet your needs.

To that end, I have decided to close the current Ella Leaside location as of June 30th, 2007 and cancel Ella’s 2007 Summer Schedule. The only exception will be our core offering of the Ella Prenatal Package as we remain committed to supporting those of our clients who will be delivering in the next few months. We are currently arranging a convenient location that will deliver the same intimate experience that our clients value from Ella.

Ella Leaside location has been an incredible place for me, for staff and I know for you, our clients. We’ve created an outstanding community together full of warmth, support and honest exchange. I want to celebrate and thank each and every one of you for the impact you have made in helping this place become so special.

We will keep the Ella Community supported and connected by continuing to post new and interesting information on our website, by sending out a regular e-newsletter with Ella expert advice and support for all our new and expectant parents, and by providing you links to Ella endorsed service providers and products. I will miss the Ella Community tremendously, however I do look forward to joining with you as an Ella client myself after our new bundle arrives.

Stay tuned! Until then may your bellies, babies and growing families be happy, healthy and well.

Sincerely,

Amy Halpenny
Founder, Ella Centre for Pregnancy & Parenting
