Mindful Beginnings: New Parent Outdoor Meet-up Group
The Alliance for Early Childhood Presents: Mindful Beginnings
Mindful Beginnings is an outdoor meet-up for new and expecting parents that will launch Fall 2024. We’ll meet monthly on the third Wednesday of each month from 10-11:30am at different trails to walk together and connect with nature. Bring your baby (carriers encouraged) and join us for a walk led by Kassie Leachman, a certified doula and childbirth educator. This is a great opportunity to connect with other parents and share your experiences.
