Recap: Welcoming New Moms at KC Mom + Baby

Kansas City Mom Collective was excited to host our second annual baby fair, KC Mom + Baby: An Event for New and Growing Families.

Moms, partners and support persons gathered at Olathe Conference Center on a Sunday afternoon for support, resources, swag, giveaways and community.

Throughout the conference center, attendees gathered an abundance of resources, met with people who could assist in their new parenting journey, and were able to shop for items for babies.

We were thrilled to have  Learning Quest 529 Education Savings Program as our title sponsor, and AdventHealth and Infant Toddler Services of Johnson County as our premier sponsors.

Moms found their way into the event thanks to the adorable signage from Yard deSIGNS of Johnson County and enjoyed our cravings bar, including pickles from Kansas City Canning Co. and ice cream from The Frosted Peddler. They also posed for cute selfies at the KC MOM sign adorably created by Boss Babe Balloon Co. and Marissa’s Marquee Letters and walked away with a fun photo to remember the day by courtesy of Click Fun Photo Booth.

In addition, attendees sat in on chat sessions on Investing In Your Child’s Future with Learning Quest 529 Education Savings Program, Safe Slep for your Baby with AdventHealth and Hope Starts With A Plan with Infant Toddler Services of Johnson County.

The first 150 people walked away with a swag bag filled with more than $100 worth of goodies. In addition to swag, every attendee had a chance to win thousands of dollars worth of amazing giveaways from pack n’ plays and bassinets to medical services and memberships. One lucky winner even took home $529 in an educations savings account thanks to Learning Quest!
