Prenatal Visits and Newborn Classes
Complimentary Newborn Classes
The physicians at Forest Lane Pediatrics are now offering complimentary classes for expecting parents via a virtual platform. These classes will consist of small group sessions led by one of our board-certified pediatricians. Our goal is to help parents feel more prepared during this exciting, but sometimes intimidating, journey. Discussion topics will include what to expect in the hospital after delivery, as well as helpful tips for the first few weeks at home with your newborn. There will also be plenty of time for parents to ask questions during the session.
