FOR EXPECTANT MOMS ONLY.

Fall/Winter Special: live online Boot Camp for New Moms workshop on Saturday, November 15th and Saturday, December 6th - FREE of charge. Each participant will receive a copy of Crash Course for New Moms-to-Be, mailed directly after the workshop.

Boot Camp is a unique workshop where moms-to-be get advice, insight and tips from real new moms and their babies.

During Boot Camp for New Moms, new mamas (and their babies) share real-world insights, advice, and experiences about navigating the first months of parenthood. You'll hear how different women and families handle the challenges that almost all new parents face:

  • Understand what new dads are going through and how to support him

  • Become a parenting team with your partner

  • Get ahead of gatekeeping so dad isn't pushed away from you and baby

  • Reinforce your relationship so it survives the stress of a newborn

  • Get support and assistance with reaching your breastfeeding goals (It's not easy!)

  • Plan for going back to work or staying home, and real-world childcare solutions

  • Talk to your partner about common road blocks

  • Create game plans now (instead of at 2am when everyone is crying, stressed, and tired)

After Boot Camp You’ll:

  • Feel more confident

  • Have your question answered

  • Be armed with strategies to make the transition to motherhood smoother

  • Know you're not alone

  • Be ready to form parenting team with your partner

  • Understand what dad-to-be is going through and how to support him

  • Have real-world insight and solutions to common challenges

A trained Coach (also a Boot Camp graduate and mom) facilitates the discussion.

We recommend mom-to-be attend around 28 weeks, but any time is a good time! The workshop is FREE with the hopes that in the future you could come back as a Veteran Mommy to share your stories and experiences when your baby is between 3 to 9 months old.

*Please note--the confirmation email and information from the class may come titled Boot Camp for New Dads or from info@bcnd.org.

Ideal for first-time expectant parents, this class will help you and your partner become more comfortable and confident parents with helpful hints, activities and information you can use. You’ll learn about newborn appearance, what to expect in the first few hours, nutrition, newborn behavior, daily care, baby safety and when to call for help.  A support person — like a partner, friend or family member — is welcome to come with you and does not have to register separately.
