What People Are Saying About the Newborn Care Workshop

“I would highly recommend the newborn care class to anyone having a baby! Just when you think you know all there is to know, there is more to learn. I loved how this class gave moms and dads the space to learn hands on all the basics of infant care and ask questions. I really appreciated that the material in class was specific and to the point with a more in dept manual sent electronically for those who like to dig deeper. I left the class feeling very confident in all aspects of care which relieves so much stress for me when baby arrives. If you’re on the fence, take it, you’re only out minimal time and cost, but have so much to gain!” -E.

“We are so thankful for the resources and wealth of knowledge provided by Transitions. The hands on training and conversations have equipped us to be more confident in the arrival of our baby girl.” -J. & K.

“My husband and I really enjoyed the newborn care class. Our little one will be the first baby on both sides of our family, so this class gave us lots of useful tools and also boosted our confidence as we get ready for baby's arrival!” -Jenna
