Lil’ Siblings

What topics are cover in this class?

Not your first rodeo? The Lil’ Siblings Class is a 4-week flock-forming session taken by not-first-time-parents with their youngest (baby age 0-5 months). Especially helpful for families who are new to the area, or wish they had taken a Birth Roots class last time. This class accommodates either one parent or two parents wishing to attend. Going from a smaller family to a larger one isn’t as easy as it sounds, mostly due to the older sibling(s) new behaviors and big feelings that make meeting the needs of a newborn feel like a 3 ring circus. Connect with other parents navigating this new terrain and gain valuable perspective on how common your experience actually is!

When should I register & when should I take this class?

This 4-week class series is taken between the first two weeks to four months postpartum. Classes are offered bimonthly, and prenatal enrollment is encouraged. Register based on your estimated due date, month of session can be adjusted if necessary. These classes are often full with waitlists, so we recommend signing up three months in advance, around 32 weeks of pregnancy. If classes are full we recommend signing up for the waitlist. We are sometimes able to offer an additional session if there is enough interest. Registration and tuition enrolls one parent/baby pair (not taken with older sibling/s).
