Classes & Mentoring
Learn practical parenting and life skills in a supportive setting. Baby Bootcamp is offered for new mothers and fathers with lessons on baby care, safety, and parenting with confidence. Participants earn a significant gift at completion, like a car seat, playpen, or baby monitor.
One-on-one sessions with a trained client advocate are also available so growth can happen at your pace. Childcare is available for some events. Just ask when signing up.
Baby Store
Every parent deserves a little extra help. Through the in-house Baby Store, class participants can earn free diapers, wipes, formula, clothing, and other essentials for their little one. It’s a welcoming space to choose what’s needed while feeling supported and encouraged.
Community
You don’t have to do this alone. Join Moms Connect for small-group life skills classes covering cooking, budgeting, sewing, and more, plus a weekly women’s Bible study on Thursdays from 11 to 12.
Fatherhood Connect is coming soon, offering mentorship and encouragement for dads led by a local leader.
Parenting classes are held in cozy rooms designed to make learning and connecting feel comfortable and safe.
Resources
Branches Center is connected across the community and can guide you to trusted resources for adoption, housing, transportation to appointments, legal or medical help, and more. Whatever your situation, caring staff can facilitate introductions so you can choose the support that fits your needs.
