Skills - and More - for New Dads 

It's tough to be a real partner in parenting if you don't know much about babies.
 
This program provides men an opportunity to learn their newborn baby's 5 basic needs, what to watch for in how baby communicates them and how to not only meet their baby's needs...but anticipate them.
 
Sample topics include:
  How will I know when my baby is hungry?
  How much rest does my baby need?
  What will I do when they cry (and they will) and how will I soothe them?
 
Along with practical tips on burping and changing diapers.
 
All this and some hands on practice, along with some good ol' fashioned encouragement, and these dads are ready to fulfill a new definition of fatherhood.
 
Attendees will also learn Dorsey's "Parenting C.P.R." techniques for estabilishing a lifelong bond with their children. It's the best two and a half hours any new dad will spend in preparing for fathering their child in partnership with mom.
 
Since 1999, expectant and new fathers have been getting a lot more out of those first precious moments with their children because of the skills - and more - provided by the Conscious Fathering Program.
