Everything You Wanted to Know about Infant and Toddler Development (but Were Afraid to Ask) (birth – 24 months)
Unsure when to expect your baby to roll over?
To speak her first words? To do his first high five? Curious about when you need to baby-proof the bathroom or break out the shape sorter? Learning when to anticipate these milestones offers parents the opportunity to engage playfully with their babies and encourage early development. Join pediatrician Nancy Schwartzman to discuss motor skills, cognitive bursts, social development, and language skills; to learn why development falls off track; and more. With Nancy Schwartzman, MD.
Tues., May 15, 7:00 – 9:00 pm. $35.
Infant Sleep Solutions (birth – 12 months)
Learn some great techniques to help your little one (and you!) sleep. We will discuss baby sleep needs and the best ways to help young ones learn good sleep habits. We will cover the importance of a baby schedule, challenges to baby sleep habits (developmental milestones), new SIDS research and guidelines, pros and cons of various sleep methods (Ferber, CIO, low/no-cry methods), infant/child sleep products, and choices: family bed, crib, room sharing. Non-crawling babies welcome.
