jBaby Chicago Parent Ambassadors
Our Parent Ambassadors are part of the new parent community! They are eager to meet and welcome new parents, listen to and share stories and connect you with other families and opportunities in the Jewish community.
Email a Parent Ambassador to take them up on their offer for coffee or meet at a play space or park. They also have jBaby Chicago swag to welcome your new baby or toddler – so be sure to get in touch!
