Join us for coffee, the company of other new parents, and a relaxed conversation about finding the right kind of childcare for your family.  Sarah Marks, founder of Nannies by Sarah, will discuss the pros and cons of different childcare options and the benefits of hiring a nanny, and will share strategies for hiring a nanny that meets your family’s needs.  Bring your questions – we’ll spend most of our time talking through participants’ specific situations.  Babies warmly welcomed!

How much time you’ll be out and how much of that time will be paid are big considerations as parents prepare for parental leave—and they’re often negotiable. Join Randi Braun, coach, speaker, and Founder of Something Major for a workshop on how to negotiate for the parental leave you want, whether you’ve been with your company for 5 years or are 5 months pregnant and looking for a new job.

At a surprisingly young age, children internalize messages from our culture and from their families about body image.  This workshop will focus on steps that parents can take from the beginning to help children and families develop healthy relationships to food and body image, avoid power struggles around food, address picky eating and enhance self-esteem.  Participants will leave with concrete strategies and suggestions for raising healthy and confident children. Facilitated by Alisa Schwartz, PhD and Rachel Engelhart, RD, LPC.
