Savannah – The Chatham County Health Department is preparing to host a Super Community Baby Shower aimed at supporting expecting families in the local community. The event will take place on Saturday, July 26, 2025, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Savannah Tech Auditorium on White Bluff Road.
This event is specifically designed for expecting mothers and families with children under the age of 5. It is an accessible gathering, as no registration is required for attendance, and it is noted that children do not need to be present.
Organized by public health educator Katee Sykes and her team, the Super Community Baby Shower aims to connect families with a variety of community organizations and resources that can assist them.

The event will cover essential topics for new parents, including:
With the aim of providing a welcoming environment, the baby shower is free for all pregnant women and families with young children. It is designed to serve as a space where families can learn and connect with available community support, enhancing their readiness for parenthood and addressing important health and safety topics.
The Chatham County Health Department emphasizes that the Super Community Baby Shower reflects a commitment to supporting families during the early years when proper guidance and resources are invaluable. By joining together with local organizations, the health department aims to foster a supportive community where families can thrive.
In recent years, community health initiatives nationwide have increasingly focused on supporting families, particularly during prenatal and early childhood stages. Such programs not only aim to educate parents but also create networks among families to share experiences and resources pertinent to child-rearing.
The necessity for community support is particularly highlighted in discussions regarding maternal and child health outcomes. Access to information and services can significantly impact the wellbeing of both parents and children, and the Super Community Baby Shower aspires to enhance this access.
For more details on the event and a comprehensive list of participating organizations, members of the community are encouraged to visit the Coastal Health District’s website, which provides further insights and updates on available resources.
