What we’re about

Welcome to BYOK – Bring Your Own Kid!

We're a community of parents and caregivers in Chicago who believe in real connections, messy fun, and showing up with our kids. Whether you're a stay-at-home parent, working full-time, or somewhere in between, this group is for you.

From park meetups to museum trips, creative playdates, and family-friendly coffee hangs — we're here to build community, share resources, and support each other.

🍼 Babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age kids welcome
☕ Real talk, real support, and low-pressure fun
🌳 Most events will be in Chicago parks, libraries, or play cafes

Come as you are — and BYOK!
