Jun. 212023

New parent classes have become a beacon of guidance and assurance for first-time parents. With countless books, videos, and well-meaning advice from family and friends, it’s easy to become overwhelmed. This is where the Center for Pediatric Medicine steps in, offering comprehensive classes to prepare you for the exciting journey of parenthood.

The Importance of New Parent Classes

Welcoming a new member into the family is an exhilarating experience filled with joy, anticipation, and admittedly, a good amount of apprehension. While most of parenting comes instinctually, a solid foundation of knowledge can help alleviate fears and uncertainties.

  1. Building Confidence: New parent classes instill confidence by offering hands-on experiences, discussions, and answers to common questions.
  2. Establishing a Network: These classes bring together parents from diverse backgrounds, providing an excellent opportunity to build a supportive community.
  3. Up-to-date Information: Medical recommendations and childcare best practices evolve. New parent classes ensure you’re equipped with the most recent and reliable information.

After Hours

Center for Pediatric Medicine is here for your pediatric needs 24.7, 365 days a year! We understand that your child may get sick outside of CPM’s normal office hours.

How does after-hours work:

  • Monday – Thursday: our offices will close at 9:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Friday.
  • Friday- our offices will close at 6:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Saturday.
  • Saturday- our office will close at 2:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Sunday.
  • Sunday- our office will close at 1:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Monday.

During the hours we are closed we are readily available to assist you with any urgent clinical concerns you may have.

You can call any of our office locations or 203-790-0822. You will be promoted with an after-hours message. If you select option 1 you will be connected with CPM’S after-hours answering service team. The after-hours team will gather all of your child’s information (Patient's first and last name, best contact number, and health care concern). This message will be sent to “Rainbow Babies” an experienced triage service that CPM uses to assist us with clinical after-hours calls. A trained triage nurse will call the patient back and provide the recommended clinical advice. If the triage nurse needs more assistance they will reach out to one of CPM’s on-call providers for the night. CPM’s on-call provider will call the patient directly and continue to evaluate your child over the phone. All phone call encounters are followed up with a call the next day from CPM’s triage department.

If it is a life-threatening emergency please call 911.
