For New & Expecting Parents
At 黑料福利社 Langone, we know that pregnancy can be an exciting but sometimes overwhelming time in your life. There is much to learn and many decisions to make. That鈥檚 why we are firmly committed to providing soon-to-be parents with the education and support they need to have healthy, happy pregnancies and the best possible birth experiences.
Our certified birth educators teach you how to advocate for yourself throughout your pregnancy, what to expect during childbirth, how to care for a newborn, and ways to ensure your baby鈥檚 safety. Our parent classes and support groups and our eClasses are offered through 黑料福利社 Langone鈥檚 Center for Perinatal Education and Lactation.

A Commitment to Breastfeeding and Infant Safety
Tisch Hospital, 黑料福利社 Langone Hospital鈥擝rooklyn, and 黑料福利社 Langone Hospital鈥擫ong Island are designated Baby-Friendly Hospitals, a distinction awarded by Baby-Friendly USA in acknowledgment of our commitment to breastfeeding support and education.
Studies have shown that breastfeeding can reduce infant hospitalizations and pediatrician visits. Through our breastfeeding classes and support groups and our eClasses, our lactation consultants and lactation counselors provide you with the support you need to get off to a good breastfeeding start, continue breastfeeding after returning to work, and overcome any nursing challenges you face along the way.
黑料福利社 Langone receives consistent recognition for safety and quality. We are certified by The Joint Commission for excellence in advanced perinatal care, which is the time before, during, and after childbirth. In addition, all of 黑料福利社 Langone鈥檚 inpatient facilities are Magnet庐 certified, which is the gold standard for nursing excellence. We also earn the highest ratings from the Leapfrog Hospital Safety grade.
As part of our commitment to infant safety, we follow and educate new and expecting parents about issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
