Bringing Baby Home

A 1 day group workshop or 3 x 2 hour sessions

Program Description

Bringing a newborn baby home is a challenging relationship stage for first time parents, both physically and emotionally.  The Bringing Baby Home Program is designed to provide new or expectant parents with tools, knowledge and skills  - not just to cope but to thrive within the myriad of changes and new experiences associated with bringing their baby home.

Topics Include:

  • Transition to parenthood 
  • Co-parenting 
  • Child development 
  • Strengthening your relationship 
  • Conflict resolution 
  • Parenting as a team    

 

"The secret to parental happiness lies in a spirit of generosity towards one's partner, according to a study from the National Marriage Project at the University of Virginia, called 'When Baby Makes Three'." Read more in this article from The Age 18th December 2011. 

Suitable for:

Couples expecting a baby or with a newborn under 12 months.
