Newborn Care Classes
Need to brush up on your diapering skills? What do you do when the baby just won't stop crying? Feeling a little intimidated by all those contraptions? It is very common to feel a bit overwhelmed when bringing home a new baby. Since they don't come with manuals, the next best thing could be a hands on Newborn Care Class. Find a class here and learn all the latest tips, trends and techniques for taking care of your new baby once he or she has arrived. Some of the providers below teach in a group setting and some will teach privately in your home.
