Three Tuesday evenings online for expectant and new-parent couples. Practical, evidence-based, and designed to help couples protect connection, manage conflict, and parent as a team — proudly funded for local families.
Based on decades of Gottman Institute research — one of the most studied approaches to relationships in the world — this workshop gives couples real, practical tools for one of life's biggest transitions. It's the workshop we wish every couple had access to before baby arrives.
The foundation of everything. Couples who know each other deeply — their dreams, fears, and daily worlds — are far more resilient when the pressure hits. We help you stay curious about each other, even when life gets loud.
Not just "use I statements." Real skills for navigating conflict without it turning into a war — so you can disagree without damaging the relationship.
Who does what? How do you make decisions together? How do you support each other when you're both running on empty? We help you build a team before the game begins.
It doesn't disappear — it just needs tending. We give you simple, evidence-based ways to stay close even in the blur of new parenthood.
Stress is inevitable. But understanding what it does to you — and to each other — changes everything. Knowledge is protection.
Thanks to Macedon Ranges Shire Council and Kyneton Community House, Bringing Baby Home is available — for the first time — to soon-to-be and new parents across the Ranges. Completely free.
Register your interest →Built on the Gottman Institute's Bringing Baby Home program — 40 years of couples research, delivered in a warm, practical group format.
Understanding the transition to parenthood and keeping friendship, fondness and connection alive when everything is changing.
Managing conflict, recognising escalation, and strengthening father engagement from the very beginning.
Creating shared meaning, protecting intimacy, and leaving with a realistic, shared plan for family life.
The program is most useful before a relationship is under pressure. Couples do not need to be in crisis to benefit.
Prepare together before sleep, roles and routines change. The most powerful window — arrive ready rather than reacting.
Get shared language and tools while the early pressure is still fresh and the patterns are still forming.
Enter the next transition with a clearer partnership plan — and the benefit of knowing what last time taught you.
This program is offered at no cost thanks to the support of Macedon Ranges Shire Council and Kyneton Community House — local organisations investing in the wellbeing of new families across the Ranges.
Their funding means every expectant and new-parent couple in our community can access a gold-standard, evidence-based relationship program — regardless of budget. No payment is required, ever.
