jBaby Chicago Playgroups

Join a weekly playgroup to connect with other jBaby families. These social groups are facilitated by our jBaby Parent Ambassadors and are offered in person and virtually. Find the group that works best for you and your family!

JUF Young Families programming is enriched by the diversity of our participants. We know each family is unique and all are welcome. Please email us at youngfamilies@juf.org if you have any questions or if you require any accommodations to make our programming accessible and welcoming to your family.
