The San Francisco Birth & Baby Fair is THE event for new and expecting parents in San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area. Don't miss your opportunity to promote your business, product or organization to parents and to network with other Bay Area Resources. We have a variety of sponsorship, exhibit and advertising opportunities available to meet your needs. Participate as a sponsor, workshop facilitator, exhibitor, or advertise with or without a physical presence.

Our Spring Event will be held Saturday May 24th, from 10am to 4pm, at the beautiful Fort Mason Center, in San Francisco's prosperous Marina District. Parents will enjoy a day of education, shopping and discovery. There will be goody bags for the first 250 attendees and refreshments available . Free workshops and demonstrations educate parents in various aspects of early parenting such as Baby Sign Language, Birthing Options & Alternatives, Cooking for you and Baby, Breastfeeding, Mom & Baby Nutrition, Pre & Post-Natal Fitness, Baby Carriers, Cloth Diapering and more.
