Join us for a warm, supportive parent class designed to nurture your baby’s early development – and your confidence as a caregiver. Co-led by a Virginia Frank Child Development Center early childhood Family Therapist and an Integrated Pediatric Therapies Speech-Language Pathologist, this gathering offers a unique blend of emotional, relational, and developmental guidance during your baby’s first year of life.
Together we will explore such topics as:
- Attachment and bonding
- Parent/Infant mental health
- Neurodevelopmental milestones
- Feeding
- Co-regulation and attunement to cues
- Encouraging language and motor development
- Infant massage
This class is ideal for new parents and caregivers seeking to better understand and support their baby’s early developmental journey. Each session will focus on a different topic and will include discussion, demonstration, and resources for families. There will be 8 sessions on Tuesdays, 11:15am-12:15pm from April 14th-June 9, 2026
*No Session on May 5
