Bringing Baby Home

Bringing Baby Home (BBH) is the only workshop based on over 40 years of scientific research that has proven success in helping couples manage the changes that occur when a child is born, and improving the quality of life for babies and children by strengthening their families.

Developed by renowned relationship and parenting specialists, Drs John and Julie Gottman, the BBH program is perfect for those who are:

  • Interested in having a baby
  • Expecting a baby
  • Already parenting an infant or toddler (age 0-3)
  • LGBTIQ families

Becoming a parent is one of the biggest and most important transitions in life. It is a transition filled with mixed emotions and experiences. It is not surprising that 67% of couples experience a significant drop in relationship satisfaction after the birth of their baby. The secret to managing the transition to parenthood is to keep your relationship strong.

This class combines research, education, interactive exercise, and skill building to improve the quality of life for babies and children by strengthening the family. Parents build relationship satisfaction and create healthy intellectual, social and emotional development for their children.

The goal of BBH is to equip you with the knowledge and skill sets needed to constructively cope with the various changes that typically occur during the first three years after your baby is born.
