Graduates of “Bonding with Baby” have said:
”It was so special to set aside this time every week just to focus on my relationship with my baby. I would recommend this class to anyone.”
“Once my newborn became more alert, I realized I didn’t exactly know ‘what to do’ with her during the day. I felt guilty about it. Jillian’s class was transformative: it gave me new little rituals and activities to try, and more importantly, it gave me self-confidence about how I was spending time with my baby. This class has been the best gift I’ve given myself as a new parent.”
”The little community we formed within the class was amazing and so so helpful. I don’t think I realized how isolated I was feeling. The class has been something I look forward to every week and has brought a lot more fun and connection to this overwhelming time.”
”I’m not someone who normally feels comfortable singing… But Jillian helped me get out of my shell. Now I sing to my baby every day and it’s fun for both of us.”
