Learn about programs and services supporting new parents & caregivers.

Have you recently welcomed a baby, or are you expecting? Join the Santa Barbara Public Library (SBPL) and a variety of partnering organizations in the Faulkner Gallery on Saturday, November 7, for our annual Community Baby Shower. Parents & caregivers can discover programs, resources and services that support the health, development, and early literacy of young children.

Be one of the first 50 attendees to receive a special goody bag filled with materials to support your growing family.

"Navigating Santa Barbara with a baby can be a big challenge for first time parents" said Rebecca Robertson, Youth Services Librarian, "This annual event is a great opportunity to find out what free resources exist to support them in their new role."
