Life with A Baby Support group
Life with Baby is a weekly parenting support group for parents caring for their baby in the first year.
While full of so many joys, we know it’s also full of sleepless nights, sticky hands, belly laughs, questions about everything from feeding to diapers, and so much more. We invite you to join this wonderful group of your fellow new parents as you learn about Life with Baby together. Babies are more than welcome to accompany you to this meeting. The group is facilitated by Jennie Kieffer. We welcome your questions, your concerns and your fears and your triumphs.
Expecting families and new families are welcome to join us. Most people come with their baby but it’s OK if you would prefer to come without your little one. Please bring a blanket for your baby and quiet toys or books for any young children who come along with you. You are welcome to bring snacks or your lunch. We have an infant scale that you can use during the meeting to weigh your baby if you like.
To attend this group, we kindly ask for your financial support of $3 per meeting. You can pay using the button below or with cash or credit/debit card at the studio when you arrive.
Your contributions truly help us keep our support groups going strong, thank you so much for helping us help you and other families and babies in our community. Payment is greatly appreciated but not required. No one will be turned away due to lack of funds.

Topics explored in our Life with Baby support group include:
"I was dealing with postpartum depression and anxiety and needed to get out of the house and meet others to chat with about the challenges and joys of parenthood. Jennie is an amazing group leader and I felt so welcomed and supported every week I was there. We talked about the hard stuff, the sad stuff, and the amazing stuff. Life with Baby was a huge part of my healing and I am so incredibly thankful for this group and for Jennie"
