Build a strong, healthy family with the Gottman Bringing Baby Home class for parents


  • Little Elf Family Services 371 Nevada Street Auburn, CA, 95604 United States (map)

TUESDAYS 6-8 PM Pacific starting January 10, 2023

Becoming a parent changes who we are and what is important to us. Wouldn’t it be amazing to know what to expect, to have tools to deal with the changes, and to have time set aside to understand our partner’s needs and feelings?

Bringing Baby HomeTM is a class through the Gottman Institute that empowers us to understand and appreciate each other as we become parents, and to work together as a parenting team.

It has been shown to:

  • Increase the joy of parenting

  • Improve relationship satisfaction

  • Strengthen children’s communication and attention skills

The material is based on the over 20 years of relationship research done by Dr. John Gottman and is designed for people who are expecting a baby and parents with children 3 years and under.

Cost is per family, and each class is limited to 10 couples. The class will be held on Zoom or similar platform
