Project Self-Sufficiency has launched a new series of Baby and Parenting Fairs to help pregnant women and parents of young children to access the resources they need to be successful. Monthly “Baby Beginnings, Baby & Parenting Fairs” will feature targeted discussions, along with free baby items, prizes and giveaways. Interested participants are invited to gather on Friday, October 18th, 10:00 a.m. – noon, to learn about prenatal and postpartum nutrition. Prenatal fitness, early childhood development, effective bedtime routines, and positive parenting techniques will also be addressed. Lunch will be provided.

“We are excited to be offering these innovative and fun monthly gatherings to the community,” explains Deborah Berry-Toon, Executive Director of Project Self-Sufficiency. “Pregnant women and parents of young children have a great need for accurate information about a host of topics, and these Baby Beginnings Fairs will allow them to receive up-to-date parenting advice, as well as free items for baby and family.”
