Springfield-Greene County WIC

Tomorrow's the day! Join us for this month's Nurture Café, which is all about the little impressions that stay with us — from those tiny fingers to the big ways motherhood shapes our lives. We’ll chat about how breastfeeding has impacted our journey, then create a sweet thumbprint keepsake craft to take home. Join us for conversation, reflection and community.

When: Friday, May 15 from 10 a.m.-12 p.m.
Where: O’Reilly Center for Hope at 1518 E. Dale St. in Springfield

What to expect:
- Breastfeeding tips and encouragement
- Connect with other parents and caregivers
- Playtime for babies & older kids
- Healthy snacks

It’s a free, welcoming space for pregnant and breastfeeding WIC members—and yes, older siblings can come along too!

RSVP by texting your name to 417-633-9102.
