A circle time lap-sit for babies ages 0-24mos and their caregivers! Thirty minute program followed by fifteen minutes of open play.

Play an important and powerful role in shaping the early learning experiences of your child! Babytime is the perfect place to socialize and learn important skills with your baby. We'll sing songs, share rhymes, learn some baby sign language, and read along to fun board books. Then, the toys come out! While the babies play, caregivers have a chance to socialize and exchange information.
