Join us for a welcoming and supportive NICU playgroup designed especially for families with children under the age of three who have experienced a NICU stay. This playgroup offers a safe, nurturing space where little ones can explore, play, and build early social connections in an engaging indoor play environment.


Caregivers will have the opportunity to connect with other families who share similar experiences, fostering a sense of community, understanding, and support. Whether your child is crawling, walking, or just beginning to explore, our space is thoughtfully designed to encourage development through age-appropriate play.


Come as you are—this is a judgment-free environment where every milestone is celebrated. We look forward to growing, playing, and connecting together.


What to Expect:

  • Open play in a safe, indoor setting
  • Age-appropriate toys and sensory activities
  • Opportunities for caregiver connection and peer support
  • A relaxed, inclusive atmosphere for all developmental stages

We are partnering with The Play Group to offer our NICU Parents at Play, created especially for families with little ones under the age of four who have experienced a NICU stay. This is a wonderful opportunity for your child to explore, play, and grow in a safe indoor environment, while you connect with other parents who understand the NICU journey.
