It Takes a Village is a facilitated monthly gathering to support new parents as they navigate every aspect of parenting—pregnancy, postpartum, and life with young children—and to help foster meaningful connections between other parents and caregivers in our community.
This gathering creates a safe space to share, listen, and provide advice about everything from feeding, teething, and sleeping with a newborn, to taking care of yourself and your family as a new parent. We believe that supporting families during this very important time is vital to the physical and mental health of both parent and child, and to the community as a whole.
Parents, along with their children of any age, are welcome to attend. Registration suggested — walk-ins welcome!
Upcoming Meeting Dates:
Meetings are held on the third Friday of the month — September 18, October 16, November 20 & December 18
About Our Facilitator:
Jess Tyson is an entrepreneur, author, community-builder and mother of two. She started her virtual assistant agency, Don’t Panic Management, in 2011 and opened a small co-working and community space in Redding—Georgetown Collective—in 2023.
After employing dozens of mothers over the years and learning firsthand the demands that motherhood puts on the bodies and minds of birthing women, she has become a fierce advocate for parental rights in the workplace and beyond. Jess believes that American society does not value or support mothers the way it should, and the lack of support has taken a toll on the mental and physical health of women everywhere. She is excited to lead and support this group and usher in a new wave of thoughtful, confident, and cared-for children.
