The First Six Weeks
 
 


Most parents agree that the first six weeks after the birth of their baby are incredibly challenging… breast-feeding… birth recovery… forming a family… forging new relationships with your partner… dealing with relatives… baby blues… sex… nappies… logistics… pets... bonding with the baby... sleep...

You have the baby... but now what?

Research shows that two thirds of couples report a significant decline in their relationship after the birth of their baby. 

Our course is designed to make sure that you are in the one third of couples who find their baby enriches their relationship.

In an interactive, informative and entertaining four hours, your presenters will take you through a survival course for the first six weeks. 

Drawing on their own parenting experiences, research evidence and their long involvement in  childbirth and parenting education, David and Ingrid will provide you with the tools and knowledge to navigate this tricky time.

Established in 2005, over 1300 parents in the Canberra/Queanbeyan region have launched their parenting career with the First Six Weeks Course.

An entertaining and informative course

We were so focussed on the birth that until we did your course we didn’t think of afterwards...  Thank you so much.  You prepared us so well for our new life as parents.  I wish my sister and brother-in-law had attended!
