Family-Owned businesses/momprenuers:

If you need a product, service and/or class, we can find it for you. That is what we do! If you have a product, service and/or class that you want our families to know about, contact us with your info and we can add it to the website.

In brief, you should know the following about us; our Village was established in 2004 and has been responsible for providing outstanding Family Support, Services, Products and Education ever since. Our specialty is in the area of Parenting. Our regular families particularly value the long term relationships they build by attending our classes and events. Our focus is on families in the Los Angeles/San Fernando Valley/West Valley/West Hills/Calabasas area.

It is not about the numbers, but about the connections we make each week. We are not a business, but a Village of families who care and connect for the long-term. We are just like you. We have been there and done just that. You are NOT ALONE! We learn HOW-TO-BABY from each other and from practice. Come join us!
