Having a new baby in the house can be an exciting time, but it also brings plenty of new duties and responsibilities. And as the saying goes, babies don’t come with a manual. As part of an ongoing commitment to families, CoxHealth will offer the popular “BabySense” class twice in August:
• 6:30-8:30 p.m., Wednesday, Aug. 12
• 6:30-8:30 p.m., Wednesday, Aug. 26
Hosted by the CoxHealth Women’s Center, BabySense is led by an experienced childbirth educator and is geared toward expectant moms and dads, to help them prepare for the changes a newborn brings.
The class teaches parents how to meet the everyday needs of their child. The course covers the basics of baby care and addresses many safety issues, ranging from baby-proofing your home, to car seat and sleep safety. Parents are also coached on handling crying and offering comfort to their infants, selecting childcare and more.
BabySense is open to the public, but registration is required. There is a $20 fee. Class will be held in suite 130 of the Turner Center, 1000 E. Primrose. For more information or to register, call 269-LADY.
