The Gottman Institute's research-based Bringing Baby Home workshops prepare couples for life with a baby and helps them be the best parenting team possible. In a relaxed and supportive environment, parents learn to strengthen their relationship, develop healthy attachment, and foster their baby’s development. They build on what Dr. Gottman and colleagues found is the best predictor of marital adjustment after a new baby arrives: the quality of friendship in the marriage. When babies grow up in a home with a positive, playful parenting team, they feel safe and nurtured and available to learn. They cry less, they smile more, and their parents' cooperation helps them to pay better attention during play time so that they get more out of it.
