You must bring your baby to this workshop. If you wish to take this workshop
during your pregnancy bring a life-sized doll to apply and practice techniques being taught.

This life-changing workshop is based upon the work of leading pediatricians and child development experts. It picks up where the prenatal classes leave off ~ immediately following your baby's birth~ and guides you in parenting your baby right through the crucial first three months of life. You will take home an instruction manual & workbook which reviews the information and techniques learned in the workshop to ensure your continued success at home, on your own.
