[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your first step: invite the other families with babies/toddlers close to your kid's age over to your house for coffee/playdate. Hold it at 9am or whatever ridiculous hour works for all the naps. Then, do it again the next month. Or see which family you clicked with the most, and do it again. You may need to host every time for awhile. But as your kids get older, you can shift to a playground. Start scoping the ones that are SMALL and fenced in (key for toddlers). The kids wont' care about playing together very much until they are over the age of 2 or 3, but it will help you feel you have someone to chat with about all this. I love babies and am excited for my friend's and relatives babies, but I do want to go to a 1 year old birthday party on Zoom. If you want to set up a video call with people, do that. But a zoom party sounds awful. [/quote] From daycare. Host the families from daycare. Sorry left that part out![/quote]
