At It’s Grand! we provide a specialized grandparent training program that combines Change Management methodology with professional health care facilitation to provide practical guidance and support for navigating newborn care and safety.
Your support is irreplaceable
There is no Greater Joy or Privilege than Being a Grandparent
Parents and grandparents undoubtedly value the importance of building strong relationships within the family, and welcoming a new baby is a perfect opportunity for this. Our program recognizes this need and goes beyond simply equipping grandparents with the updated knowledge and skills for newborn care and safety. We understand that involving grandparents in the caregiving process creates an environment where meaningful connections and stronger relationships can flourish.
Through our specialized training program, grandparents gain a deeper understanding of the latest techniques and expert insights, allowing them to contribute to the care of their grandchild actively and support the new parents as needed.
By contributing to the newborn’s care, parents and grandparents can bond over shared experiences, exchange wisdom, and create lasting memories together. The joy of watching a grandparent lovingly cradle their grandchild and the heartfelt conversations had while soothing a crying baby all contribute to the relationships and a sense of unity within the family.
JOIN US! Our program provides the foundation for excellent care for the newborn and creates an environment where parents and grandparents can grow closer and appreciate each other’s contributions. Together, navigating the joys and challenges of parenthood, knowing that the support, knowledge, and love of each other will be there.
