In addition to my childbirth education classes, I offer this amazing workshop for parents!
Becoming a parent changes who we are individually and together as well as changing what we value.
Imagine knowing what adjustments to expect and having the tools to handle this transition, coming through stronger as a couple.
Picture setting aside time to discover how to build a sure foundation that's emotionally sensitive to babies and family relationships.
