First-time dads learn to be comfortable with a baby during Boot Camp for New Dads

If you're a first-time father-to-be, you'll want to sign up for Boot Camp for New Dads, a free basic training class for men like you. This program is part of Kohl's Parents' Academy -- presented by Via Christi Health and funded by Kohl's Cares® .

In the program, "veteran" dads share firsthand advice with expectant dads and bring their babies to class to enhance the new fathers' experience. You'll  learn how to diffuse the stress of new parenthood, help Mom, form a family bond, survive a crying baby and much more.

"Veteran" dads share firsthand advice with expectant dads and bring their babies to enhance the new fathers' experience.
