Parenting is not a “one size fits all” approach, and we provide Dads the information and tools to help determine what works best for their little ones. Like Moms, Dads also experience a transition when they become fathers, and our class brings Dads together in a relaxed group environment where they will find camaraderie and help to succeed in their new role as a parent and as a support partner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough not necessary, parents may find Daddy \u0026amp; Me class most useful when Moms are also enrolled (or were previously enrolled) in our Mothers' Gathering Mommy and Me Class. Daddy \u0026amp; Me class covers many similar and related topics as those covered in Mothers' Gathering (including transition to fatherhood, bonding with baby, parenting with a partner, learning to be a support partner, work\/life balance, mindfulness, baby's sleep and feeding, and developmental milestones), although oftentimes from the opposite side of the coin. This allows both Mom and Dad (when both are enrolled in separate classes respectively) to reflect meaningfully on the same issues facing all parents and help gain understanding and clarity into each other's perspectives and challenges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDaddy \u0026amp; Me Class meets once a week. Classes are held on weekend mornings for 90 minutes. Many parents may find immense value alone in the opportunity for Dad and Baby to bond together on a regular basis (as well as give Mom dedicated alone\/self-care time). Although visitors are not permitted in class, we encourage Moms that may need to breastfeed their babies to stay close if needed—our store is located in a shopping center with many places to fill time. Moms are always welcome to wait in our store as well. \u003cspan\u003eDue to the nature of bonding and support that is created in a consistent group environment,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e c\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003elasses are not available for purchase as a one-time attendance or on a “drop-in” basis.

For babies, the class includes singing songs, developmentally appropriate toys, movement, and other activities to aid their cognitive, social, and motor skill development.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBond With Your Littles at Daddy \u0026amp; Me Classes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBonding doesn’t have to wait — it starts right here.
