Join us virtually on Wednesdays from 6-6:45pm for Zoom Yoga
Our special yogis have been practicing together for nearly FIVE years! Each class focuses on gentle movement, mindfulness, balance, and stress release. Calming benefits will follow you well beyond your yoga mat.
When participating at home it's important to have a safe and uncluttered space to practice in. A mat is nice but not required. This will be a gentle slower paced class, combining motion and stretching. We encourage families to join the class together and practice on their own too.
This is a group for moms of all stages, designed to foster relationships. Join us for a drop in visit or ongoing sessions. Each week will focus on a specific topic that new and repeat mothers often encounter.
We appreciate your registration below! This is a no-cost group sponsored by About Families, however, your donations are sincerely appreciated to keep our programs running!

Machado Family Giving is excited to host its Smart School Supplies event for students in Jurupa Valley!
In partnership with Jurupa Unified School District and the RIVCO Lions, we will be providing backpacks and back-to-school supplies — plus a day full of family fun!
Get ready for a morning of fun and exploration at the library! Start your day with an interactive story time, where little ones and their grown-ups can cozy up together and enjoy the magic of books.
Then, get your wiggles on at our brand new Movement Lab! This exciting space is designed for children ages 0-7 to explore movement and sensory experiences through play. Think tunnels to crawl through, balance beams to conquer, and colorful scarves to twirl and dance with.
Here's what you can expect:
Story Time: Enjoy engaging stories, songs, and rhymes that will spark your child's imagination and love of language.
Movement Lab: Let loose and explore a variety of movement and sensory activities designed to develop gross and fine motor skills, balance, and coordination.
Bonding Time: This is a wonderful opportunity for parents and children to connect, play, and create lasting memories together.
Bonus: After story time and Movement Lab, be sure to check out the library's children's section for even more books and activities to explore together.
We hope to see you soon!
P.S. Don't forget to wear comfortable clothes that you can move and play in.
