Welcome Roundhouse Babies (a.k.a The Yaletown Toddler Playgroup)
Hello moms and babies (and dads, and grandmas, and grandpas...),
Welcome to the Roundhouse baby group! Although our group is officially for babies that are 8 months +, we are welcoming babies of all ages and their caregivers. This is a free drop-in lead by a dedicated group of moms. We meet every Thursday at the Roundhouse Community Centre between 10:30 am and noon in Room C, which is conveniently located next to Room B where Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) is hosting another free drop-in for babies up to 8 months. Although VCH nurses officially host the 0-8 month baby group, they are available for consultation to our group too. Also, both groups get the opportunity to weigh and measure their little ones during the drop-in time.
Please note while the drop-in is free, you are encouraged to purchase the Roundhouse family membership which is only $12 for the whole year, and covers 1-2 adults plus their children under 19!
We will try to have a guest speaker for each of our gatherings, and we will post the schedule on this page as soon as we have a confirmation from our presenters. If you have any suggestion regarding the topics that you would like to hear about or discuss, please do not hesitate to let us know. You can post a comment on this page, or simply voice your suggestion next time we meet.
In addition to that, we have access to toys so there will always be lots of free playtime!
Thank you for checking our page, and come by the Roundhouse soon!
