Class Philosophy

The Jewish Baby Network is committed to providing information in a non-judgmental manner. It is our intention to educate parents about the traditions, rituals and resources, and it is up to each parent to decide how much or little to incorporate into their family’s life. The Jewish Baby Network welcomes everyone, including LGBTQ, single and multi parent, multifaith, multiethnic, multiabled, and unaffiliated families.

Our programs are designed for families with children aged 0-36 months, but bring the whole family! Grandparents and extended family welcome. We always have great snacks, fun art supplies, and play spaces for older siblings too. We welcome everyone, including unaffiliated, single and multi-parent, multi-faith, multi-ethnic, multi-abled, and LGBTQ+ families.

JBN Sponsors: Congregations Beth Am, Beth Jacob, Kol Emeth, Or Shalom, Sherith Israel, and The Kitchen.

JBN Major Funders: The Koret Foundation, Rodan Family Foundation, and Leslie Family Foundation.

Jewish Baby Network is a program of Jewish Family and Children’s Services’ Center for Children and Youth. JFCS supports families from newborn to the elderly. Please visit the JFCS website for more information about all their great programs.
