"The mission of Pickles & Popsicles is to create a collective of acceptance, support, and transparency for all women journeying to and through motherhood."
We’re a compassionate community-based organization that fosters a nurturing environment for women and birth worker professionals. A safe space for mothers of all stages to connect, share, and become empowered.
We are committed to revolutionizing the support system for moms by employing innovative approaches to education, advocacy, and emotional support throughout their motherhood journey, from pregnancy to postpartum.
Together, we aim to build a caring and understanding community that celebrates the uniqueness of every mother's experience while providing the reassurance that they are not alone. Through this shared vision, we strive to redefine the standards of motherhood support, leaving a lasting positive impact on the lives of all the mothers we touch.
Meet Whitney, Founder of Pickles & Popsicles!
Motherhood is beautiful, but it can also be incredibly isolating. Whitney created Pickles & Popsicles to share the joy, the sorrows, and to connect mothers to a nurturing community.
In addition to being the founder of Pickles & Popsicles, Whitney Hunter-Batteast is a devoted mother and wife. Married to Cassio (greatest man on the planet!), they are raising three beautifully brilliant children -– Kynadie, Cassio II, and Afeni.
Pickles & Popsicles was created during her last pregnancy (2019) and the name was birthed from her pregnancy cravings.
Whitney experienced vastly different pregnancies with each of her children, but one thing was consistent - her village. She had a great circle of support at every turn, through every complication, and with every milestone.
Inspired by her own support circle, Whitney wants to build that village for fellow mothers. Empowering women throughout the motherhood journey with community, connection, and education founded upon evidence-based research. Emotionally supported mothers raise emotionally supported children.
