Hi there, Does anyone know if there is a good new mom/baby group in Leslieville right now?  (this is for my brother and SIL who just had a baby a few days ago). As I understand it, Public Health's "When Baby Comes Home" is not not in operation anymore (which sucks - my group was what got me through the first few weeks/months of parenthood).  I know there must be some programs at the drop-in centres, I just thought I would come on here first to get the scoop to pass along to them.   Thanks!KateSee More
