0

Bloom 2018 It’s time for . . . Bloom :: An Event for New & Expecting Moms! Bloom, happening April 15, 2018 from 2:00 – 5:00 p.m. at Cook Children’s Medical Center, is an event for expectant moms and moms who are currently parenting children two years and under. (Foster and adoptive moms are welcome, too!) The afternoon will focus on information, resources, products, and more that target the pregnancy and delivery stages of parenting through the first two years. This event, held in partnership with Cook Children’s, will provide a few hours of pampering, light snacks, educational resources, giveaways and swag, shopping, and connecting moms and families with relevant local resources for this season of life.

Cook Children's Health Care Systems Bloom 2017Did you know that our hosting sponsor, Cook Children’s, has been helping children for 100 years?!?! As a connected system of specialists, pediatricians, clinics, a medical center, home health company, health plan, and community programs, Cook Children’s patient families benefit through access to all of its available resources — right here in Tarrant County and surrounding areas. So what better place to learn more about helping our wee ones thrive and . . . uh, bloom. (Sorry, we couldn’t help it.)

What to Expect

Fort Worth Moms Blog readers will take over the downstairs education wing of the Cook Children’s Medical Center. Attendees will enjoy numerous local vendors, who provide services and products that directly impact this stage of life. You can check out the list of Bloom participants by visiting “Bloom 2018 :: Giveaways, Panelists, Presenters, Swag, and Vendors.”

Our host sponsor, Cook Children’s, will provide complimentary valet parking. The afternoon’s snacks and treats come from our pals at Jason’s Deli. Yay!

During the event, attendees will choose TWO of six workshops to attend. We listened to feedback from last year’s event and included more variety in our breakout sessions and the opportunity to attend more than one. (Attendees can pre-select two workshops during the registration process.) We retained an expert panel discussion for the close of the event. Both the workshops and the panel will focus on pregnancy and delivery topics, in addition to topics on postpartum care and parenting through age two. The event schedule is:

  • 1:30 — registration opens
  • 2:15 — welcome assembly
  • 3:00 — workshop #1
  • 3:30 — workshop #2
  • 4:30 — panel and closing assembly

During the break times between activities, several local vendors will be on site with products and services designed to encourage and support women during this stage of motherhood.

No Fort Worth Moms Blog event would be complete without SWAG and GIVEAWAYS! Ohhhh, and this event will have the best line-up to date! For the most up-to-date listing of swag and giveaway sponsors — along with a list of workshops and panelists — visit “Bloom 2018 :: Giveaways, Panelists, Presenters, Swag, and Vendors.” Also, follow the Bloom 2018 event page for updates and tips.
