Each baby’s birth is the beginning of a new journey for parents. You want to know the steps you can take to ensure your baby grows and develops well.

These monthly email bulletins have the information you most need for that month of your baby’s development. First Steps bulletins were carefully assembled from the best information available and compiled in a brief, readable style. They will help you learn the usual developmental mile markers for that month. Also, what to expect next and the best ideas to help your baby get there. Other short articles of interest for parents with children that age are included.

Please request First Steps Bulletins by emailing Diane.

If you enjoy receiving First Steps, please share You Are Invited! with your friends and families with babies and small children.
