Newborn Parenting series

Parents, caregivers and babies from birth to 16 weeks are invited to join us for our FREE newborn parenting classes.

This is an opportunity for free weekly baby weight checks, to connect with other new parents, ask questions or talk about concerns, gain professional advice, laugh, and talk about life with your new baby. Classes are led by a licensed parent and family educator along with guest speakers from: WIC, Public Health, Lactation, Pediatrics, Early Intervention, and Mental Health.

Help ease the transition into life with your new baby in a supportive, open environment.  Start anytime and come as many times as you would like until your child is 16 weeks old.

Pre-registration is not required but does help us be prepared. Participants can start classes anytime.
