Baby Workshops are classes about different developmental questions or challenges. They are one off classes, and you can join several depending on your interest.
First-Step Private Lessons are great to focus on your baby’s development more deeply that can happen in a group workshop.

First-Step therapy addresses a broad spectrum of disorders including genetic syndrome, brain injuries, autism and communication disorders, motor delays and disorders, low muscle tone, epilepsy, severe eating disorders and ADHD.
The therapeutic process is an intensive learning process in which parents actively participate. In fact, parents’ role is central in creating a facilitating environment for their child’s development.

Additionally, slings facilitate easy breastfeeding and allow caregivers to attend to daily tasks while keeping their little ones close.
The Training Program enables you to become a First-Step® Instructor! First-Step® has currently trained and certified over 3000 instructors. Some of these instructors are employed by First-Step®, while others work in private institutions or are self-employed.
Slings are infinitely adjustable, your carry is able to be tweaked all along the length and width of the fabric for the ultimate tailored carry.
