Use reading as a jumping-off point to learn and connect with other parents of new babies!
About this Event

We will be reading (or audiobooking) books about taking care of tiny babies in manageable chunks. We will use our reading as a jumping-off point to discuss new-parent life in all its complexity. Make friends, explore new ideas, commiserate about challenges, and enjoy treats together!

The book for November/December is Precious Little Sleep by Alexis Dubief. A recap of the week's portion will be provided in case you don't quiiiiite get through the reading.

In person at 4147 N. Ravenswood Ave, Ste 302

Tuesdays, 1-2:15 pm

$120 per month (one month = 4 weekly meetings = one book)

Pre-walking babies welcome; private feeding and changing space available in the suite

Dads, non-birthing partners, couples attending together, adoptive parents, and parents who are not on parental leave are welcome (it’s just a catchy title).

I am a licensed clinical social worker with eight years of post-graduate experience in a variety of settings with parents of children under five, pregnant people, couples, PhD and MBA students, and other adults in their 20s, 30s, and 40s. I am Perinatal Mental Health Certified and use an integrative, trauma-informed and attachment-based approach. I’m also an English major and the biggest reader on the planet. Seriously, I’ve read everything.
