Growing at the speed of life.
From prenatal excitement, to a baby’s first steps, to the beginning of childhood, to your own needs as a parent, we’re here and understand what you’re going through at every stage — and know each family is unique. We welcome families of every kind with kids under 12 who feel connected to Judaism in some way, inclusive of age, race, religion, gender identity and expression, sexuality, ability, and family composition.
Perfect for your whole family.
And especially for you.
Meet and bond with other parents going through what you’re going through. Gatherings, resources, and support tailored to you. Parent nights out. A community just for moms. Family camp in the hills of Ojai. Reimagined Jewish experiences. High quality. Low barrier. Inclusive. And responding to the most important needs — yours.

About us
Welcoming is one thing.
Belonging is everything.
Inspired by the Jewish proverb “with every child, the world begins anew,” we believe in the power of hospitality and connection, and the beautiful journey of raising children from pregnancy through their first 12 years of life.
At NuBloom, we understand that parenting is an adventure. That’s why we’re dedicated to offering programs, gatherings, and resources designed to engage and support you every step of the way. Whether you’re seeking enriching family camp, parenting guidance, or simply a way to connect with other families who share your values, you’ll find a place to belong.
We’re here to nurture your family’s Jewish journey, help you grow together, and ensure that no matter where you are on your path, you’re part of something bigger — a community rooted in love, learning, and life.
