Porter Library partnering with SJMC to provide 'Welcome Baby Bundles'

Westlake Porter Public Library is partnering with the Family Birth Center at University Hospitals St. John Medical Center to provide "Welcome Baby Bundles" to expecting families. Beginning in November, families who take childbirth and/or newborn classes through UH St. John Medical Center will receive a bib, board book and information about early literacy and your baby.

“Studies show that reading to your infant helps them develop language skills as they grow,” said Youth Services Manager Rebecca Shook. “This project aims to support parents and provide resources to help them start their children on the road to literacy.”
