Moms and their babies attend new moms support groups in Palm Desert. Babies will be placed into groups based on their age/adjusted age.

Mothers and infants both have the opportunity for growth and development. Groups are led by an Infant Mental Health Specialist who supports moms to learn about the individual needs of their baby, presents best practices of infant mental health while also observing the growth and development of the other babies. Moms meet other moms, grow their social support network and see that there is no one way to raise a child.

Groups meet weekly for 75 minutes per group.

Infant Groups meet weekly until most of the babies are 18 months old. Toddler Labs meet weekly until most of the children are 3 years old.

Mothers commit to a monthly membership cycle of four sessions. Membership fee is $140 per cycle. This is payable regardless of attendance.

Yes! You can use your FSA or HSA card at checkout or receive a Superbill to submit to your HSA/FSA company for reimbursement.

Speak to us more about this option if you have questions.

Moms are encouraged to join a group for as long as they are able to attend. You will meet the moms in your group cohort and can continue to be in contact. Additionally, some moms have negotiated with their paid work to have the ability to still attend groups with their infant.

To protect the health of all moms and babies, please ensure your baby is fever-free for at least 24 hours before attending class. If your baby has experienced vomiting, diarrhea, or has green nasal mucus within the past 24 hours, we ask that you stay home.

Thank you for respecting our community by strictly following this policy, which helps keep everyone safe and healthy.

Because most babies don’t receive their first set of immunizations until 6-8 weeks, most moms begin their class series prior to their baby’s first set of vaccines.

BabySpace is very conducive to newborn babies and an excellent way to get out of the house very early on for that much needed human connection without being concerned.

The playroom is kept extremely clean with very limited exposure. Babies are mostly held by mom, sleeping in their car seats, or lying on your own blanket in front of you so there is no contact with one another.

It’s true…having a baby is expensive! At BabySpace Coachella Valley, we are so grateful to hear from parents who attend groups say things like “This is the best money we’ve spent since having a baby!” and “I wish this had been available when our older child was a baby, and “I had no idea how much I could learn in group; my confidence has grown so much!”

We also hear from moms who didn’t attend group sharing how much they have learned from their friends who did attend group and would have made a different choice had they known.

Groups at BabySpace Coachella Valley aren’t just for moms, they benefit the whole family. A new mom’s mental health and well-being has a huge impact on her baby and her partner, too. When moms feel empowered and confident, the positive effects ripple through the entire household.

Bringing a new baby into the family is a major life shift. We might think it will be seamless, but once you're in it, the reality often feels overwhelming. Moms especially feel the impact, as they are usually the primary caregivers, navigating an identity shift without the guidance to make this transition easier. That’s why attending weekly groups is invaluable.

We invest so much in education…college degrees, certifications, baby gear…but none of these prepare us for the real journey of becoming new parents. Investing in resources that support you as a new family is truly priceless.

We often get messages from dads and partners, expressing gratitude for what they’ve learned through their partner’s experience in our group sessions. In fact, many moms join because dads have referred them. Groups at BabySpace Coachella Valley offers lasting benefits for the entire family.
