Tel Aviv-Yafo’s “Taf-Nit” program is holding nine sessions in November for parents and young children at four neighborhood cafes around the city, starting November 8 at Cafe Duda.
The program, run by the municipality’s Business Development Authority and Urban95, links local businesses with families of young children.
The activities
- Parent circle: at Cafe Boka and Cafe Graziani, for mothers and fathers on parental leave together with their babies, 9:30-11 a.m. A certified parenting instructor shares practical advice on babies’ sleep, including sleep habits, self-soothing and sleep difficulties. Parents can also swap experiences and advice.
