Baby Basics
The Baby Basics program is an in-home consultation service that offers support to parents of newborns. This service is provided by one of our baby doulas who has received additional specialized training. The goal of Baby Basics is to instruct parents on the most essential aspects of day to day care of their newborn, offer coaching for any feeding issues, and encourage mom and dad in their new role. The first days and weeks after bringing home a new baby are joyful, but also are a time of significant transition that can leave some parents feeling overwhelmed and lacking confidence.
Grandparents Refresher Newborn Care Class
Grandparents are an amazing resource for wisdom, support, and encouragement for expecting parents. However, many grandparents quickly discover that the rules for newborn care have evolved much like the telephone to the smart phone. And just as our modern society has created a demand for services like Geek Squad to assist you with your new technology, The Motherhood Center offers a Grandparent Refresher course that helps to merge the wisdom of past generations with the methods of the 21st century.
