Preparing for Bonding and Babywearing with Your Newborn Classes Every 2nd Thursday of Each Month!

Join me for a Newborn Babywearing Class --
Preparing for Bonding and Babywearing with Your Newborn

Who
Mothers in their 2nd or 3rd trimester suffering from back and/or pelvic girdle pain and their partners. Caregivers who are looking to learn more about bonding with their baby through Kangaroo Care/Skin to Skin therapy (KC/S2S); who are looking to learn more about which baby carriers they may prefer; who are looking to learn how to use the baby carrier that they have for their baby; who are looking to purchase a baby carrier.  

What
Attendees will learn how to wrap their bumps, learn the benefits of and how to do Kangaroo Care/Skin to Skin therapy, will learn how carriers promote KC/S2S and the benefits of each type through hands on use of 5 different infant sized carriers, will have the ability to buy their carrier of choice, and receive handouts related to the skills gained in class. 

Why
Kangaroo Care/Skin to Skin therapy helps to regulate the caregiver's and baby's breathing, heartbeat, temperature, digestive system, sleep system, stress hormone levels, and OXYTOCIN! Babywearing makes KC/S2S easier to achieve.
