Partners in Parenting Consulting presents:
The Stork School for Expectant Parents
Are you ready to be a parent? Because giving birth is just the beginning…
The Stork School for Expectant Parents is here to help!
Wouldn’t it be nice if babies came with instructions? Unfortunately, they don’t, and new parents are left to navigate sleepless nights and postpartum recovery with little education or support. If you are feeling anxious and stressed about this major life transition, you are not alone. So much attention is given to preparation for labor and delivery, but what about the 4th trimester?
New Online Course:

The Stork School for Expectant Parents empowers you to take charge of your NPE (New Parent Experience). Learn evidence-based strategies that will allow you to relax and enjoy this precious journey and be the amazing parent you were meant to be! You’ll learn about newborns and postpartum wellness before baby arrives so you can be confident and capable of caring for your newborn and yourselves.
Now enrolling! Email hello@bevgillen.com to reserve your spot.
Convenient, Affordable, and Most Importantly, FUN!
We know how busy your life is already, so no worries. Access this course online from the convenience of your couch. Progress through the modules at your own pace. There are no Zoom meetings or required in-person events.
At an Introductory Rate of $199, the course is a great value and an investment in your future family. As a BONUS, you’ll receive 10+ guides and checklists, which you can download for future reference. Put the Stork School on your baby shower registry for a fully-funded experience!
Have fun! In addition to the educational content, we pride ourselves on incorporating relaxation, connection, and humor (although you’ll have to judge that one for yourself)!
What will I learn?
Explore 14 modules with over 45 teaching topics, including baby sleep and feeding, mental health, baby safety, the couple relationship, infant development, and more. We use videos, discussion boards, short reading bytes, experiential activities, field work, and resource links to keep you engaged with the material and your instructor.
Register for our self-paced course, or watch for upcoming opportunities to join an online cohort of other expectant parents who are in the same stage of life. We also offer an in person workshop if that’s more your style. Students who complete the course will earn the Honorary Degree of Prepared Parent. You can do it – we are already cheering for you!
