Babe of Wabash County has three goals: to promote good health, education, and relationships with families in Wabash County who have children between the ages of pregnancy and five years old. To have a thriving community, success starts at home. Our most valuable service to families of Wabash County is to provide support, guidance, and mentoring opportunities that help educate parents on good parenting skills and healthy lifestyle practices.

We first promote these values through our highly valued incentive-based program. When families visit the doctor for well-baby check-ups or go to the library for Storytime, they will receive a coupon for these services. These coupons, the currency of our store, are a tangible reward for their efforts. Our boutique, though a store in every sense, operates uniquely-you can only use Babe coupons. Our program not only aids families financially but supports them in their journey of learning and growth as parents, and it also strengthens our community. By investing in our families, we are investing in the very fabric of our community, a testament to the value we place on their participation. The second way that we promote these values is through relationships and education, empowering families with knowledge. When a family walks through the doors of Babe, we begin by creating a relationship with them. We connect them to resources in our county that they may need to learn about, resources that will help support good health and education as they raise their children. We also provide a wealth of educational opportunities through our Tuesday and Thursday morning activities that promote literacy, connection with parents and children, and families with other families. Babe of Wabash County is the only place in Wabash County that offers Spanish Storytime, which focuses on helping expose your child to a second language. We are also excited to begin offering parenting classes thanks to a grant from the Lily Endowment Foundation through the Community Foundation of Wabash County.
