Takoma Attachment Parenting
Respect for Children.  Support for Parents.  Outreach to Our Community.

What can TAP offer you?

• A monthly discussion/support group. Each meeting has a featured topic, but there is also a general discussion portion.
• A place to learn about parenting styles that may differ from your own.
• A listserv where you can post questions or issues and get advice or support between meetings.
• A lending library full of books to help you navigate parenthood with dignity.
• A sling library to "try before you buy."
• A source for weekday playgroups to give parents and children some unstructured time together.
• Workshops, such as "How to Talk So Your Kids Will Listen" and "Siblings Without Rivalry."
• Outings and activities with parents who share your parenting style.

We believe...
• that all parents need support for themselves and their children.
• that children should be treated with the same dignity and respect given to adults.
• that community involvement is a value worth passing along to our children
