Bloomin' Babies Moms Group E-mail

Bloomin' Babies Moms Group has a new meeting time! 

We will continue meeting each Thursday, changing the time to 12:30-2:30 pm to accomodate for nap times. Gather at the Birth House. This is a free and open meeting space for moms with babies. Siblings are welcome. A great chance to meet other women and kids in our community and to answer that nagging question: do all kids do this? Also a space to swap clean and useable children's clothing and other items that your kids have outgrown. Come for as long or short as you want, but please arrive by 1:30pm. Call for more information!
