Practice Hands on Newborn Care | Learn Feeding and Sleep Basics | Receive Newborn Safety Education | Participate with Your Partner | Parent with Confidence
This class covers all the essential aspects of newborn care in a clear, supportive way. You’ll learn how to confidently diaper, swaddle, and soothe your baby, along with feeding basics—whether you’re planning to breastfeed, bottle-feed, or do a combination of both.
We’ll walk you through how to bathe your newborn safely, care for their delicate skin, and understand important sleep practices and realistic sleep expectations. You’ll also gain insight into reading your baby’s cues and knowing when to call your pediatrician (and when not to panic).
Whether you’re preparing for your first baby or simply want a refresher, this class will equip you with the knowledge and confidence you need for those early days.
They say babies don’t come with a manual—but we believe hands-on practice can make all the difference. In our newborn care class, you’ll learn and try out essential skills like diapering, swaddling, soothing, bathing, and safe sleep routines, all in real-time. Practicing these techniques during class helps you feel more confident and capable the moment you bring your baby home.
We encourage both parents or support people to attend, as shared learning not only builds teamwork but also helps ensure everyone feels prepared to care for your newborn with calm, connection, and confidence.
This group setting birth class is a 3-hour course facilitated in Holladay.
There will be a new class held every month on a Saturday from 9:00am-12:00pm.
