At nest we understand that welcoming a new sibling into the world is a beautiful time in a family’s life.  However, when seen through the eyes of a toddler or a preschooler, it can be a time of much anticipation and confusion.  We speak to them about being a big brother or sister, and we show them the growing belly, but this is all very abstract information for their very concrete brains to process.  In our joy of having siblings we may not notice the little ones feelings and confusion, as well as happiness and joy of having a permanent playmate.  The task for the parent is to predict and address these feelings so they can transition smoothly into being siblings "forever".

You will experience “couture parenting” as we partner with you in discovering a discipline style that fits your growing family. Week to week we will check in with you to assure that the interventions are working. At the end of group, each member will be clear on how to best make choices for their little one. 

This is a 12 week group. Cost $600 paid in four week increments of $200.  This group is run by both our program director a development and infant mental health expert, marriage and family therapists and moms.
