Nurturing You & Your Newborn

A Prenatal Movement & Education Series

in Westchester, NY

Feel more prepared for your baby's arrival with a six-week prenatal series that provides the education, movement, and community many parents wish they had before their baby was born.

​

Held at Barre on Hudson in Croton-on-Hudson, each week combines prenatal yoga with practical, evidence-based education covering pregnancy nutrition, newborn behavior and feeding, breastfeeding, pumping, bottles, formula feeding, and postpartum recovery.

​

You'll have time to ask questions, connect with other expecting parents, and build knowledge and skills you can carry with you into the early weeks with your baby.

Preparing For What Comes Next

So much of pregnancy is spent preparing for labor and delivery—but many parents tell us they wish they had felt more prepared for what comes after.

​

Nurturing You & Your Newborn was created to help bridge that gap. Throughout the series, we'll prepare for the realities of life with a new baby—from understanding newborn behavior and feeding to caring for and nourishing yourself—while making time to move, ask questions, and connect with other expecting parents.
