Support for new Parents

Home Services OB/GYN Support for new Parents

Becoming a parent comes with many changes, questions, and emotions. Our Support for New Parents resources are here to guide you through the early days with trusted care, education, and support for you and your growing family. At Confluence Health, our support begins when you are thinking about becoming pregnant and continues all the way through your baby’s toddler years. Our classes are taught by certified childbirth and lactation educators, who give you the tools to prepare for your labor and delivery, breastfeeding and caring for your newborn. You can also join the Wenatchee Mother-Baby Support group, sponsored by Confluence Health. Look for us on Facebook! Search “Wenatchee Mother Baby Support Group” and ask to join.

Remember to use a car seat for transporting your child home. Your car seat base may remain in the car when you bring in the car seat into the hospital. Parents can get help with using an infant car seat by contacting the Douglas County Fire District #2.
