2 Weekend Sessions To A Stronger, Happier Relationship with Your Spouse & Your New Baby (or Toddler!)

Bringing Baby Home Workshop is based on the research of Drs. John & Julie Gottman.

Gottman’s research demonstrates that when couples become parents, there is a significant decrease in their relationship satisfaction. Further research has shown that relationship discord and conflict profoundly negatively affect the couples’ infants and toddlers.

Children are raised in healthier environments by teaching couples how to build a solid emotional foundation in their family during the very early stages of a child’s life.

Couples who have participated in The Bringing Baby Home Program experience:

• A significantly lower rate of postpartum mood disorders & depression

• A decrease in relationship hostility

• A higher level of relationship satisfaction

• A decreased likelihood of divorce

1. This Program will teach parents to:

• Increase friendship in their relationship

• Deal effectively with conflict

• Keep dads involved in infant care & parenting

• Improve the quality of parent-infant interaction

• Recognize the psychological & emotional needs of their child

• Co-Parent effectively

2. The Program also teaches ways to nurture the family environment through the toddler & preschool years.

   By supporting couples as they become parents, children benefit.

    

   These benefits result in positive changes for families.

   Once this foundation is established in a family, research shows that:

• Children do better in school

• Adapt better socially

• Are physically & emotionally healthier
