Having a supportive parent group is important, and we are so fortunate to live in a city with an abundance of young families. If you are a new parent and looking for a meet-up, I recommend joining a local facebook group for your due date (for example, I was a part of the "Hoboken Moms July to December 2017" group). Those groups often have smaller outings and events for new parents with babies all the same age. If you prefer a more organized and consistent meet-up, or one to help with a specific need (ie.- lactation support), I have included a list below of tried and true local meet-ups. So get out there and make some friends!
