Empowering Parents, One Class at a Time

Becoming a parent is a life-changing experience, and it's natural to feel a mix of excitement and apprehension. Our Becoming Parents Classes are tailored to address your concerns and boost your confidence. Here's why you might benefit from our classes:

• Gain practical skills for labor and delivery
• Learn to care for your newborn with confidence
• Understand the basics of breastfeeding and nutrition
• Prepare for the emotional and physical changes of postpartum
• Connect with other expectant parents in your community

Our classes provide a supportive environment where you can ask questions, practice techniques, and build a network of fellow parents-to-be.

Becoming Parents and Caring for Your Infant

In this workshop, we will look carefully at what becoming new parents entails for you: emotional changes, physical changes, partner changes, and work changes. Central to this discussion is the acknowledgment that there are no perfect parents, but rather thoughtful and caring parents who do the very best they can. In the Baby Care portion of class, we will prepare both parents for the arrival of their baby and what you can expect when you bring your newborn home.

Upcoming classes: Jan. 10 @ 2 pm or Mar. 11th @ 7 pm
