Caring Network Mama Academy Bringing Up Baby- IN PERSON

Caring Network and Ascension Borgess Birthing Center have joined together to help you learn all about baby!

This free two (2) week class series is designed to help pregnant moms, parents and caregivers learn how to care for their new little one. Topics include: what to expect right after birth, sleep, bathing, infant communication, safety proofing, sick babies, car seats, and dental health. Bring all those difficult questions with you and a support person if you’d like.

**These sessions are located at 1819 Gull Rd.**

PLEASE NOTE: all in-person classes will require a mask due to the safety of everyone. If you are unable to stay masked for the entire time, please sign up for a virtual class.
