Baby Groups
Connecting with your child, while you learn
Baby Groups for expecting and new families are an excellent way for parents to spend quality time with their young child, promote healthy development and growth, and get answers for their parenting questions. The American Academy of Pediatrics says, Play is essential to development because it contributes to the cognitive, physical, social, and emotional well-being of children and youth. Play also offers an ideal opportunity for parents to engage fully with their children.

Baby & Me (0-5 months)

Baby and Me: Ready to Move (6 – 12 months)
Join other parents and Cherie Tannenbaum, IBCLC, FNP to discuss playing with your child, how to encourage independent play, managing work from home, safety, starting solids, sleep (baby’s and yours!), and changing family dynamics.
