Community resources
It may not take a village to raise a baby, but it does take plenty of support, encouragement, and community. At Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula’s Family Birth Center, you can build relationships with people who understand what you’re experiencing. From new parent groups to childbirth and breastfeeding classes, our community offerings are an excellent way for you to build your support network.
