Safe & Sound Parent Workshops
Essential infant safety and CPR training for new and expecting parents.
Did you know that 94% of sleep-related deaths in Philadelphia occur among infants between the ages of 0 and 6 months? We have partnered with our Doulas to create Safe Start workshops where we cover safety and prevention, safe sleeping, infant CPR and choking, and more. Emergencies are inevitable. Parents and caregivers are most likely to experience medical and breathing emergencies in infants and children firsthand.
Our Safe & Sound Parent Workshop is designed to increase parents’ awareness of safety and preventable hazards, and provide action steps for recognizing, responding to, and stabilizing different emergencies until EMS arrives. Led by Tiara Blackwell in partnership with licensed Doulas, this 1.5-hour interactive session covers everything new and expecting parents need to know to keep their baby safe — from safe sleep practices to infant CPR and choking response. A couples promotion is available for 20% off two tickets.
