Nominate Your Favorite Resources for Philly Parents-to-be | Best for Families 2025
We want to learn about YOUR experience with Philly-area prenatal and postpartum care, childbirth classes, places to give birth, hospitals NICUs, breastfeeding support, parent education, and childcare for infants.
Recommended resources are extremely valuable for parents-to-be in Philadelphia because they provide the information and support needed to navigate pregnancy, childbirth, and the transition to parenthood. Access to area pregnancy care, childbirth classes, new parent groups, baby item exchanges, and related services helps expecting parents prepare for what’s ahead while connecting with others going through the same life-changing journey.
We accept nominations across all categories to help local parents like us navigate the countless choices we all have to make every day (see who’s on our Nominees List so far), but we’re making a special request for you to share your favorite resources for parents-to-be in Philadelphia. We want to learn about YOUR experience with Philly prenatal and postpartum care, childbirth classes, places to give birth, hospitals NICUs, breastfeeding support, parent education, and childcare for infants.

What Are The Philadelphia Family LOVE Awards & Family Favorites?
The annual Philadelphia Family LOVE Awards and Family Favorites recognize the BEST local resources for families, based on recent outstanding experiences and trusted recommendations from parents. Our Philly Family Community Facebook group has a reputation for helping parents find friends and trusted referrals and our LOVE Awards and Family Favorites elevates stories of great experiences. Winners and Favorites will be selected using a QUALITY OVER QUANTITY approach, meaning that each nomination is evaluated by a human looking for specific reasons why the recommended business or nonprofit should be recognized.
Nominations are open until Valentine’s Day. The Philadelphia Family team will recognize and connect LOVE Award Winners and Family Favorite Honorees in our annual Best for Families Guide and with special events including the LOVE Luncheon at Terrain DelVal on March 26, 2025 and the Best for Families Celebration at the Radnor Valley County Club on April 3, 2025.
