This fall, parents and expecting families in Madison have the opportunity to take part in two incredible events designed to help them navigate the joys and challenges of parenting. Just Between Friends (JBF) of Dane County and 9in|9out Parent & Baby Expo are teaming up for an exciting week of savings and education, offering a solution for budget-conscious parents and those seeking guidance in their parenting journey.
From November 7-9, 2024, Just Between Friends will host its seasonal consignment sale at The Tributary Hub, providing families a chance to shop gently-used children’s, baby, and maternity items at prices 50-90% off retail. Then, on November 10, 9in|9out Parent & Baby Expo will take over UW Union South, bringing together local experts, resources, and support for expecting and new parents.
Together, these two events create a holistic experience that allows families to both save money on essential items and gain valuable parenting support. By joining forces, JBF and 9in|9out aims to ensure parents are equipped with the tools they need to thrive—whether that’s finding affordable gear or connecting with local experts on crucial topics like postpartum recovery, infant care, or mental health.
Just Between Friends: Sustainable Shopping for Growing Families
At the Just Between Friends consignment sale, parents can save on a wide variety of baby and children’s items, including shoes, toys, clothing, maternity wear, and baby equipment. As families prepare for winter amidst rising costs, JBF offers a budget-friendly option, allowing them to upcycle gently-used items while contributing to a more sustainable future.
“We’re thrilled to offer families an affordable and eco-conscious way to provide for their children. And by partnering with organizations like the Southwestern Wisconsin Community Action Program, we ensure that unsold items find new homes with families in need.” -Kristen Parent, owner of Just Between Friends Dane County
9in|9out: A Resource Hub for Expecting and New Parents
Following the JBF sale, the 9in|9out Parent & Baby Expo will offer expecting and new parents a unique opportunity to connect with local experts and engage in interactive sessions covering essential topics like birth preparation, postpartum mental health, infant feeding, and sleep solutions. This wellness event is designed to help parents build a support network and access resources for a happy and healthy birth and postpartum experience.
“9in|9out is an opportunity to meet people in your community who can offer the right support at the right time, in the way that aligns with your family’s needs. Whether you’re expecting a baby or adjusting to life as a new parent, the resources at this Parent & Baby expo are here to support the wellness of your entire family.” - Jackie Cook & Natalie Fay, co-founders of 9in|9out
