Hey parents! We all know the struggle of taking care of little ones at fair, let our breastfeeding booth make your day at the fair just a little easier.

Need a cool and calm place to breastfeed while at the fair? We have just the spot for you in building B!

Not breastfeeding but still have a little one? No worries! Use this space to take a break or change a nappy!

Our children are our most precious cargo. And making sure they’re riding safely is one of the most important things we can do as parents and caregivers. 💛

CAR SEAT SAFETY can sometimes feel overwhelming. Is the seat installed correctly? Is your child in the right seat? Are the straps adjusted properly? If you have questions, you’re not alone ~ and we’re here to help!

Join our Enrichment Center Team for a FREE Car Seat Safety Event in partnership with our friends at the California Highway Patrol (CHP). 🚔 Certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians will check your child’s car seat, assist with installation, answer your questions, and provide helpful education to keep your little one as safe as possible. 🫶🏼

Join us on September 26th from 10:00AM–12:00PM at the MSF Enrichment Center ~ 5070 Bullion Street in the town of Mariposa.

Come by, get your seat checked, ask questions, and leave with a little more confidence knowing your most precious cargo is riding safely. 💙
