Parenting is all about being there to provide guidance and love for your children. It’s about teaching your children how to become independent, responsible adults. Parenting for new and expectant parents can be a bit overwhelming. You’re entering a new phase of life and you will inevitably make mistakes. That’s okay! It’s perfectly normal to be unsure about the decisions you make or how to handle certain situations.
At PDHC, we believe that strong families make strong communities. Join us in our Family Empowerment Program this February and take part in free parenting classes! This program is designed to help you, as new and expectant parents, better understand your children’s development. Plus, as you complete the courses, you’ll earn free baby supplies like diapers, clothes, and a pack ‘n-play – up until your baby is one year old! Please note that space is limited, so be sure to register today!
