There is so much you can do before your baby arrives to prepare and make that transition and shift in your life that much easier.
In this workshop we will help you and your partner prepare for life with a baby BEFORE they arrive. There’s actually quite a lot to learn about babies and parenting. Taking a class at this stage, means you and your partner can put tips and tricks in place to make the transition for you both that bit easier.
All of this means that if you do hit problems you will have the INFORMATION AND RESOURCES to overcome them and have TOOLS in place to help make things easier. Trying to take in this information once baby is here can be overwhelming and confusing.
This workshop will cover normal newborn behaviour, how you and your partner can adjust to life with your baby, offer information on tips and tricks and help you prepare for the unexpected.
