Tulsa County 7th Annual North Tulsa Community Baby Shower

7th Annual North Tulsa Community Baby Shower

WHO DOESN'T LOVE A BABY SHOWER?????

Each year, numerous community resource agencies come together in North Tulsa to host a Community Baby Shower. This annual event provides education and celebration to pregnant and parenting individuals. Participants receive education about their health, the health of their babies and learn how to create a safe home environment for the entire family. Participants at the Baby Shower are also connected to local parenting support groups and area health care providers.

This event provides an opportunity for parents to celebrate a life changing event who may not otherwise be gifted with a baby shower of their own. Participants are recognized as "honored" guests and will receive lunch, cupcakes, multiple prizes, diapers, wipes, clothing, or a giveaway item to prepare their home for their new baby. Everything a baby shower should include!
