Attention Parents of the Metropolitan Area! The New York
Baby Show is upon us. This weekend, head over to Pier 92 to explore new
products and services, while learning from parenting and pregnancy experts.
New and expectant parents from the tri-state area and beyond will be there to hone
their parenting skills and interact with each other, sharing stories and tips. The

helpful information, insight and inspiration for raising their children and enjoying
