Helpful Education for New and Growing Families

Delaware Valley Pediatric Associates offers parent classes designed to help families feel more prepared, confident, and supported. From newborn care and breastfeeding to infant CPR, babysitting safety, and practical parenting topics, DVPA classes give parents and caregivers helpful guidance in a welcoming environment.

Parenting comes with questions at every stage. Our classes are designed to give families reliable information, practical tips, and a chance to learn in person from trusted professionals.

Classes Designed for Real-Life Parenting

  • Breastfeeding basics
  • Newborn care
  • Infant CPR
  • Caring for your newborn
  • Babysitting safety
  • Feeding questions
  • Safety basics
  • What to expect in the first year
  • When to call the pediatrician

Newborn and First-Year Parent Education

The first year can feel overwhelming, especially for new parents. Classes focused on newborn care can help parents understand feeding, sleep, diapering, crying, soothing, safe sleep, skin changes, and common questions that come up during the early weeks.

These classes are a helpful complement to prenatal visits, newborn appointments, lactation support, and the DVPA Newborn Guide.

Breastfeeding and Feeding Education

Feeding is one of the most common areas where parents want more support. DVPA parent classes may include breastfeeding education and practical information to help parents understand feeding cues, feeding frequency, latch basics, pumping questions, and when to ask for help.

Families who need more personalized support can also ask about lactation consultant visits at DVPA.

Infant CPR and Safety Topics

Safety education can help parents, grandparents, and caregivers feel better prepared. Classes may include infant CPR, choking response, babysitting safety, and other practical safety topics for families.

These topics are especially helpful for new parents, expecting parents, caregivers, and families preparing to leave a baby with a sitter or family member.
