Kids don’t come with a manual, but this is pretty close. Discover online classes for the modern parent, taught by certified experts. Tinyhood was founded by two moms (who are passionate engineers and entrepreneurs) who knew there had to be a better way to learn about parenting in the 21st century. Tinyhood offers access to certified parenting experts through high-quality classes in childbirth, breastfeeding, infant CPR, sleep, behavior, and so much more. Watch engaging, online parenting classes at your own pace — on your own schedule. Our flexible classes are broken down into bite-sized chapters and allow you to refer back anytime. Most classes also include printable takeaways so you can keep your new knowledge on hand or easily share with your partner and caregivers. Tinyhood’s online parenting classes were created for parents who: - Are having their first child and need to learn everything, from swaddling to CPR - Are having their second, third, or fourth child and need to refresh their knowledge on key parenting topics - Are busy and don’t want to spend hours attending in-person parenting classes at their local hospital - Want expert insight on breastfeeding, nutrition, and more — at a fraction of the cost - Are looking for content they can refer back to anytime Classes include: - Baby 101: a comprehensive course for expectant and new parents that want to learn about breastfeeding, sleep, safety, and newborn care - Potty Training, Behavior, Baby-Led Weaning. - Infant Safety: the essential infant CPR refresher class that reviews key skills and helps you stay calm in the event of an emergency - Breastfeeding 101: the ultimate breastfeeding class covering best practices and common challenges - And so much more! What our parents say: "The course was very useful. I watched many videos before the baby was born but found the most value in referencing the resources as needed in the first few weeks with the baby. You just can’t fully grasp some of the concepts until you’re in the throws of it." “I was feeling very anxious and unsure how I would do everything when it came to breastfeeding. Now I am feeling much more confident and that I will be able to pull this off” “I actually had to do [choking CPR] on my 7 month old this week—two days after watching that portion of the class—and only knew what to do because of the video. I’m convinced my baby is here today because of that class.” “These classes made me feel so confident going into baby led weaning!! Thank you!” “Clear and quick reminders of the best and up-to-date way to save a child. I've recommended it to many friends and family members.”
