Preparing to bring home a baby for the first time can feel daunting. However, many women don’t feel prepared to parent, so you shouldn’t feel like you have to know everything beforehand.
At Carolyn’s Place, we’re here to support you with free parenting education designed for first-time parents.
Our Earn While You Learn (EWYL) program is a six-week course covering essential labor, delivery, and newborn care topics. This class is open to first-time expectant mothers, fathers, or caregivers who are in their third trimester of pregnancy.
Whether you’re a mom, dad, or supportive loved one, EWYL gives you the skills and supplies you’ll need to welcome a baby home confidently.
What You’ll Learn
Each week, you’ll attend a 90-minute class led by a staff member with a medical background. Sessions focus on childbirth preparation, understanding the labor and delivery process, and how to care for your infant in those early weeks of life.
You’ll receive guidance on everything from diapering and bathing to feeding, soothing, and bonding with your newborn.
Earn As You Learn
As a participant, you’ll receive free baby items each week that match the topic covered in class. These practical supplies will help you prepare for life with your newborn. Items include:
- A brand-new car seat
- Baby bath & hygiene supplies
- Delivery room personal care items
- Newborn clothing
- Diapers and wipes
- Blankets and postpartum pads
- And more
At the end of the six-week program, you’ll receive a new crib or bassinet, a big step toward making your home ready for baby.
Get Free Parenting Classes
EWYL classes are completely free of charge. While many mothers attend alone, we encourage you to bring the baby’s father or another key support person who will help you during delivery or at home.
