New Parents Support Group
"Becoming a Family"
We provide a lovely, nurturing environment for new parents to comfortably connect with their infants (2 months to 8 months) and other new parents, while gaining valuable information and support. Topics may include: bottle feeding/breastfeeding, pacifiers, partner involvement, co-sleeping decisions, self-care, role adjustments, difficult feelings about parenting role, and typical child development questions -- from sleep schedules to ways to enhance a secure attachment. We also explore how your own childhood influences your parenting -- this reflective capacity is found to enhance secure attachment relationships. The group is facilitated by Deborah Groening, MFT, Infant-Family Mental Health Specialist. This is an ongoing group with an 9-week initial fee, then monthly. $40/family/group* or $360 for the first 9 weeks.
*Sliding fee scale available.
