We are a small group of open-minded parents who are choosing to raise our kids following attachment parenting principles like babywearing, co-sleeping, gentle discipline, etc. (You don't have to do all these things to be an attachment parent though!) Let's create a warm, wonderful support group here in Westchester where we can create a community of likeminded mamas and papas.
This group is for women (or men) who parent in the attachment parenting persuasion and wish to connect with like-minded mamas (or papas). Or maybe you just wish to explore the topics below... either way! All are welcome! This is intended to be an informal gathering to connect on topics such as: Breastfeeding, baby-wearing, co-sleeping, child-led weaning, gentle parenting practices, non-violent communication, waldorf education, mindful parenting, etc.
