OVERVIEW
The New Parent Support Program (NPSP) is a professional team of registered nurses and licensed clinicians who provide supportive and caring services to military families who are expecting and/or with children from birth to five years of age.

CLASSES
Baby Boot Camp is a class that provides information on labor & delivery, postpartum, breast-feeding, bottle feeding, and safety. The class emphasizes the father’s involvement and includes interactive demonstrations of basic infant care, such as bathing, diapering, and soothing a crying baby. This class is provided to expectant parents (both couples & singles). Participants must register prior to attending the class by calling the NPSP Office. Please note that registration deadlines are seven days before each class.
Military Moms & Munchkins (MM&M’s) Play Corner is a monthly playgroup that allows parents of children ages 0-5 to receive education and support in parent-child interactions. NPSP staff are available on the 3rd Thursday of each month from 11am to 12pm at the Shadow Mountain Indoor Playground, Bldg. 692, with educational information and activities.
