Where would I find local parenting classes?

just4funn3 asked:


I am looking for parenting classes in Southern California, but I am not having any luck. I would like to attend a class and not do it on line. Anyone have a suggestion where?

   Try your local hospital, I took a parenting class at our hospital. They should also offer a birthing class and a breast feeding class…. Good luck!!

   Talk to an OB/GYN and they will have all the info you need. You can also try planned parenthood or your local health and welfare office. They know what classes are available and when they start and fees if any. Way to go for taking classes instead of just winging it! Good on you!

   Most hospitals offer birthing classes, breastfeeding classes, infant child cpr and first aid classes, new parent classes to go over baby care skills etc. Our hospital even offers parenting classes based on age of the child (newborn, infant, toddler, preschooler, etc), and some are set up as a play group as well.

   Sometimes these classes are free, other times there is a small fee to take them.

   Hi. If I were you, I would check with my doctor and see what he/she says. A lot of times, hospitals offer parenting classes. I would also maybe check out through Social Services. They may have that sort of information. The only other thing I can think of is maybe checking with a local church. Hope these help some.

   call your local school district. theres a program called stepping stones. You do not need to live in the city that offers it. It didn’t sound like a parenting class to me but it is. It is best if you have younger kids but they help all parents. There are others, through colleges. Good Luck

   Call your local hospital or local health department they would be the best to tell you.
