Baby Cafés and the Covid-19 virus
Baby Cafés offer VIRTUAL BABY CAFÉ MEETINGS temporarily.
Individual Baby Cafés will follow the Communicable Disease guidelines of their sponsoring organizations regarding group gatherings, therefore all of them are closed temporarily.
Please check individual listings on the top and bottom of this page (Find a Baby Café button), or with local Community and Facebook listings to see if they are offering VIRTUAL Baby Cafés.
In addition, if a participant, staff member, or volunteer has any symptoms of respiratory disease, or has traveled in the past 14 days, please do not attend any Baby Café in person that may be open.
BE WELL and STAY SAFE
