Tiny Talkers comes to Mothergarden: Oct 12

sponsored by

Mothergarden is Nurture's growing free drop-in group for parents & children, Mondays from 10:30-noon.

As part of our intention to help parents connect with community resources, Mothergarden will occasionally feature speakers on parenting-related topics. While Mothergarden doesn't specifically endorse any particular speaker or philosophy, we are delighted to offer a variety of presentations, and invite you to contact us if you would like to share with the group.

Please join us on October 12 at 11am, as Shira Fogel of Tiny Talkers gives a free introduction to baby sign language:


Baby Sign Language: Free Seminar

Imagine knowing what your baby wants before they can talk! Babies can talk with their hands before they can speak. Learning how to communicate with baby, reducing tears & tantrums, is easy when you teach them sign language. Attend this free thirty minute seminar and learn all about the benefits of singing with your hearing child and take home a few signs and tips to start working with your child right away!

Many Thanks to Mothergarden's New Sponsor: Grasshopper

Mothergarden, Nurture's free drop-in group for parents & children, has a new sponsor through the end of the year: Grasshopper, our local friendly children's boutique just two blocks down on Alberta. In addition to helping fund Mothergarden's warm and welcoming space at Nurture, Grasshopper is donating toys and a new changing table as well!

Please stop by their beautiful store at 1816 NE Alberta St to check out all they have to offer, and we'd love to see you for Mothergarden on Mondays, 10:30-noon.

What is Mothergarden? Mothergarden is a space to relax and share your experience of being a mother, meet other moms, trade stories and suggestions, find the support you need, and simply enjoy the company of other moms & babies.

How did Mothergarden come to be? Mothergarden has been birthed from a lovely partnership between Nurture and Sarah Nuxoll of Welcome with Love Family Care. Sarah's vision of helping women as they grow into their roles as mothers is perfectly complemented by Nurture's mission to provide a warm and welcoming space for growing families to find the support they need. Our intention is to bring together moms & babies to help bring forth the collective wisdom, humor, and compassion that sustain and nourish us as mothers.

Who is invited? Although we created Mothergarden to help new mothers find support and companionship, we also welcome expectant mothers, dads & partners, grandparents, friends, and others who are interested in creating a parenting community to support each other.
