The transition from pregnancy to parenthood can be magical, exciting, and difficult all at once. Though most of this journey will be guided by intuition and love, basic knowledge of your baby's needs will help ensure a smooth adjustment for both of you.
This class covers issues relevant to you and your newborn. Our small group size allows for demonstration and practice, as well as a pace conducive to discussion of individual needs. Expectant mothers are encouraged to bring a support person - partner, mother, best friend, etc. This four-hour class is offered once or twice every month. Topics include:
- sights and sounds of the healthy newborn
- eating and sleeping patterns
- baby essentials - what you really need
- dressing - what and how
- cord and circumcision care
- diapering
- bathing
- when to introduce a bottle and/or pacifier
- readying your home
- traveling with baby, and more
