Newborn care workshop description

Please join us for this deep dive into what to expect and how to care for your baby when they arrive. This session includes hands-on practice for swaddling, changing diapers, and learning how to pick up, hold, soothe, and settle your baby for sleep. We will also discuss important decisions to make before the birth regarding hospital procedures, when to call the pediatrician (or go to the ER) and the “Golden Hour” (spoiler alert, baby’s first discovery of the breast as well as the first delicious moments of bonding.) This workshop is ideal for both parents or a parent and a caregiver. Single parents are most welcome as well!
