Happy Holidays!

We offer this group as a time of sharing and support. The sessions are open to all and are facilitated by Connie Patterson, a Licensed Professional Counselor. Because the effectiveness of the group is dependent on its size, please RSVP to Molly at 740-592-4408 or molly.wales@yahoo.com.

Sleep: How to Get It, and How to Live Without!

Tuesday, January 26th

7:00 to 8:30pm

at the Athens Library

Experienced parents will tell their "sleep stories," then we'll have a discussion covering how much sleep babies need, how to deal with a lack of sleep, nap and bedtime schedules and routines, co-sleeping, night waking, and anything else you need to talk about!
