Prenatal Support Group (expecting parents welcome!)
Pregnancy is a wonderful time to meet other expectant parents and make connections in your community.

Discussions will be based on participants' questions and interests. Local experts such as doulas, midwives, lactation consultants, and childbirth educators will visit the group periodically to address topics relecant to pregnancy and early parenthood.

More Parenting Support:
As your baby grows, we hope you will continue to join us for our free New Parents' Support Group. It's a great community of new parents going through some of the same issues, struggles and amazing experiences that you are. In addition to this group, we are pleased to offer a Baby Basics class for more in-depth instruction on topics such as Breastfeeding, Infant Massage, Cloth Diapering, CPR/First Aid, Baby Sign Language, Infant Development, Sleep, and more. With expert speakers, discussion and valuable information, this class will help you feel more confident on your journey into parenthood. Additionally, we offer child development classes such as Blossom Baby to lead parents through a guided class experience as you discuss your childs development and your experiences as a new parent. Through engaging activities, music, movement and instructor-led discussions, you will find support through these precious, early months of your child's life.
