This two-session class at Chester County Hospital in West Chester, PA covers infant care techniques such as bathing, diapering, dressing and soothing. Participants will have the opportunity for hands-on practices with dolls. The second session focuses on infant safety topics such as safe sleep, car seats and infant CPR.
We also encourage "Grandparents" to register for this class with the expectant parent so they can learn the many changes regarding childcare that have taken place over the years. Due to space limitations, we will try to accommodate one grandparent per attendee. Please call to schedule. For virtual classes, both grandparents may attend.
