A friend of mine recently referred her grandchild and his pregnant wife to a Bringing Baby Home class, because she noticed that the wife had a horrible background of abuse and at times had difficulty functioning. What the grandmother noticed with this couple was a change in the family dynamics. the couple knows how to get along, the father is engaged in parenting, and the baby thriving. This is really starting at the root of the problem.
20 years ago, Drs. John and Julie Gottman worked with new parents and discovered that 67% of couples reported a decline in relationship satisfaction after bringing their new baby home. To help these couples, they developed and conducted research on the Bringing Baby Home Program—a workshop for parents to learn how to maintain intimacy, manage conflict, and use positive co-parenting methods. Recently, this training has been updated to include ACEs science.
Since then, this evidence-based program has helped thousands of new parents increase their relationship satisfaction all over the world.
All expecting and new parents can benefit enormously from integrating components from this workshop into their families. We invite you to attend our Bringing Baby Home Educator Training on May 17-18, 2018 in Sacramento where you will gain all the skills and tools needed to teach your own Bringing Baby Home workshop to new parents in your community.
