Bringing Baby Home addresses the rest of the couple’s life together.
Bringing Baby Home addresses the rest of the couple’s life together.
Even the strongest relationships are strained during the transition to parenthood. Lack of sleep, never-ending housework and new fiscal concerns can lead to profound stress and a decline in marital satisfaction – all of which affect baby’s care. Not surprisingly, 69% of new parents experience conflict, disappointment and hurt feelings.
The Bringing Baby Home workshop is designed for expectant and new parents to develop skills and techniques that will help ease the transition that comes with the addition of a baby to the family. Bringing Baby Home was developed by Drs. John and Julie Gottman - leading experts in the fields of marriage and early parenting. Unlike many other programs, Bringing Baby Home is based on best practices supported by research findings and has been shown to increase the chances that a couple will successfully navigate this stressful period in their relationship. |
The 2-day Bringing Baby Home Workshop addresses many of the common concerns and experiences of new parents. Through a series of dynamic short presentations, exercises, video clips and facilitated group discussion the workshop provides research based information and guidance to help couples begin to navigate the challenges of transitioning to parenthood.
