Bringing Baby Home
For our group classes, we ask that all participants keep their video on throughout the class. Similar to an in-person class, this creates a sense of community and safety. If you prefer not to be seen, we recommend a private one-on-one session with one of our instructors.
Our Bringing Baby Home class is a hands-on parenting class for expectant parents including
- Choosing daycare and managing the wait list
- Building your after birth support system, including filling in service gaps when you do not have a Family Doctor
- How to decide what items to purchase for life with baby
- Basic baby care including bathing, swaddling, holding baby
- The difference between cloth diapers, disposable diapers and diaper service and the diaper loaner program
- Benefits of babywearing and how to pick baby carriers for ergonomics
- Infant Feeding and introducing solids
- What you need to know when purchasing a car seat for your baby
- Learn how to properly and safely install your car seat
- How to properly restrain newborns in car seats
- How to deal with choking
- Babyproofing: how to make your home safer for your baby
- Learn the most common cause of injuries and how they can be prevented
- Where to purchase home safety products
The cost of the class is $200 (CAD) (per couple).
*A couple is defined as a pregnant person and one support person (which can be a spouse, partner, friend or family member)
