Kohl’s Happiest Baby on the Block

Presented by the Parenting Center at Children’s Hospital. 

Babies don’t come with instructions… Learn how to have the happiest baby on your block!
Based on Dr. Harvey Karp’s breakthrough ideas, the parent educators at Children’s Hospital’s Parenting Center will teach pregnant couples, new parents and caregivers calming techniques proven to quickly calm crying and boost infant sleep. 

Come learn how to turn on a baby’s “calming reflex” using five simple steps: the “5 S’s” - swaddle, sway, side/stomach holding and suck. The class is appropriate for expecting parents as well as those with babies under 3 months. 

Complimentary parking will be available for all classes in Touro’s parking garage on Delachaise Street across from the Emergency Department.

This class is FREE of charge.

Cancer Survivor Support Group

Attending a support group is a great way to receive support from others who are going through a similar experience. It’s also a way to give support to others. If you are nearing the end of your cancer treatment, recently completed treatment, or finished treatment some time ago, please consider attending the cancer survivor support group at Touro. It’s an opportunity for you to receive the information, encouragement, and support you need to learn to live beyond cancer.

Baby Food Making Class

Join Touro Nutritionist Julie Fortenberry for an interactive baby food making class. Introducing solid foods is a fun (and messy) milestone during your baby’s first year of life. But, it can be overwhelming for a new parent to decide what, when and how often. We’ll teach you the basics of baby food, including: when and how to introduce solids, the benefits of making homemade baby foods, how to make and store baby foods at home, adding new flavors and combinations as your baby ages, and more! Plus enjoy baby food tastings during the class and ask your nutrition questions.

Parking in the Prytania and Delachaise Street garages will be validated.
