On Saturday, May 24th from 10am until 3pm at Fort Mason Conference Center, new and expecting Bay Area parents can attend free workshops and meet representatives from over 45 locally based companies and organizations covering everything from prenatal education and family finances to new parent support and holistic care. Admissions is $5, children 18 and under are free. Complimentary passes are available from most sponsors and exhibitors while supplies last. Today's parents are fortunate, if not overwhelmed, with a multitude of options during pregnancy, birth and early childhood. Parents in the SF Bay area especially benefit from the myriad of services catering to diverse lifestyles and populations. The San Francisco Baby Fair is the perfect opportunity to explore these resources and gather information to enhance your experience in pregnancy and beyond. Attendees can find out what a doula is, learn how to "wear" their baby, or find photographers to capture the unique experience of pregnancy. Workshops and demonstrations include Early Pregnancy 101, Birthing Options and Alternatives, Cloth Diapering, Pre & Post Natal Exercise and more. Parents also have the opportunity to discover local boutiques and designers and purchase baby clothing, accessories and discounted, brand name maternity apparel. There will be a free raffle with prizes donated by participating businesses and gift bags will be distributed to the first 250 families to arrive. Because the event coordinators own and operate a small business themselves, this event encourages patronizing local businesses and services by emphasizing exhibitors that are locally based."We truly believe in the benefits of a localized supportive environment for parents so you'll find no glitzy baby races sponsored by multi-national corporations here." says Maternity Xchange co-owner, Bobbi Williams. "The San Francisco Birth and Baby Fair gathers members of the local birth and early parenting community and give families the chance to discover and support the businesses and resources in their own backyard." "The SF Birth & Baby Fair should be one of the first stops for the expecting or new parent," according to Cara Vidano, owner of Natural Resources, a pregnancy, childbirth and early parenting center in San Francisco. "Pregnancy takes you into a whole new world that can be overwhelming due to the multitude of options during ones pregnancy, birth & early parenting days. This event will answer questions you didn't even know you had."
