Having a baby can be an exciting time but it’s also one of the biggest changes you and your partner are likely to go through. You’ll both be tired and stressed, and you may argue more.
Baby Steps
Our Baby Steps parenting support programme is for expectant parents living in Lambeth who are between 26 to 32 weeks pregnant. It includes sessions on managing the stresses that parenthood can bring.
If you are currently pregnant, living in Lambeth and interested in taking part, please register your interest for our Baby Steps programme.
We will contact you when classes become available.
Me, You and Baby Too
Me, You and Baby Too is a free online course that can help you navigate the changes you will experience as new and expectant parents, and keep you moving forward together.
You will learn:
- what your baby picks up, even before they are born
- why stress should be a shared burden
- how you and your partner can support each other
- how to talk to bring up difficult topics
- how arguments start, and how to stop them
The course is online so you can go through it at your own pace. You can do it all in one go or save your progress and come back to it later. It will take about 40 minutes to complete, so it’s best to give yourself enough time and space to reflect.
To access the course, you will need a smartphone, tablet, or computer, and a good internet connection.
