Grandparents to be antenatal session
Sandwell’s Changes Antenatal offer – a two hour session specifically designed to support grandparents-to-be or other family members.
Research with new parents in Sandwell tells us that the first person they ask for advice about their new baby is a family member. As you know, advice for looking after a new-born baby is updated regularly and we want to make sure that family members are giving the best advice and supporting current safety messages. Topics covered included supporting well-being, feeding options, safer sleeping advice.
Booking is quick and easy; either online or through Healthy Sandwell.
Sessions are currently being delivered online, using Microsoft Teams. A printed handbook will be delivered through the post to support the session.
