Program Description:
Melodies of Bonding During Pregnancy and the Fourth Trimester
Music is one of the very first ways you connect with your baby. By 28 weeks of pregnancy, babies can hear and recognize your voice—and you don’t need to be Beyoncé or Taylor Swift for it to matter. Your voice is already your child’s favorite.
In this one-hour class, Jennifer A. Yurkovich, MS, LPMT, MT-BC will show you how simple songs and gentle rhythms can support your baby’s brain development, emotional regulation, and sense of security from the very beginning.
You’ll learn how to use music to support early language, create calming daily routines, and nurture your own well-being through deeper bonding—all with easy, practical tools you can start using right away.
