About us
Welcome to The Sweet Arrival, we are so glad you’re here!
We offer tailored newborn care classes based on the latest pediatric recommendations to provide parents with peace of mind as they enter parenthood. Information is presented as a fun course experience in the comfort of a client’s own home and at a time of their choosing! No more trying to squeeze a pre-set class into your busy schedule or being limited to a generic online course.

Along with our classes, The Sweet Arrival is dedicated to decreasing stress for parents through our concierge services. We believe that the time preparing for a baby’s arrival should be enjoyed, not researching photographers or vendors for a party! We hope that we can serve you and your family during this exciting time!
