Navigating Parenthood Together: The Bringing Baby Home (BBH) Workshop

Jul 18, 2025

Becoming a parent is one of life’s most profound transformations. Whether you’re preparing to welcome your first baby or already navigating the early years of parenthood, the journey can bring both immense joy and unforeseen challenges. That’s where the Bringing Baby Home (BBH) workshop comes in.

What is BBH?

Developed by renowned relationship and parenting experts, Drs. John and Julie Gottman, the BBH workshop is a research-based, research-tested program designed to support couples in the transition to parenthood. It’s not just about preparing for a baby—it’s about nurturing your relationship, strengthening your family bond, and laying a solid foundation for your child’s emotional and psychological development.

Why BBH Matters

The first three years after a baby is born are a time of significant change for couples. BBH equips parents with the skills and strategies they need to:

  • Strengthen friendship and emotional connection
  • Increase intimacy and affection
  • Manage conflict more constructively
  • Maintain relationship satisfaction
  • Reduce hostility and stress

BBH isn’t just about the couple—it’s about the entire family unit. The program helps foster positive parent-child interactions, ensures both parents are involved meaningfully, and reduces the risk of postpartum mood disorders by raising awareness and providing practical tools.

What You’ll Learn

The workshop provides insight into what to expect as you transition into parenthood, and empowers you to:

  • Understand your baby’s development
  • Develop effective co-parenting strategies
  • Improve communication and compromise with your partner
  • Recognize signs of postpartum mood disorders and explore treatment options

Who Should Attend?

The BBH workshop is ideal for:

  • Couples thinking about having a baby
  • Expecting parents
  • Parents of infants and toddlers (ages 0–3)

Whether you’re just starting to plan or already deep into diapers and sleepless nights, BBH offers a roadmap to not only surviving—but thriving—together as a couple and a family.
