Kit for New Parents

Expecting a baby is an exciting time.  From the womb parents begin to learn about their child and form important bonds. To help support this relationship, First 5 California offers the free Kit for New Parents (Kit). The Kit recognizes parents as their child's first and most important teacher and includes information on nutrition, safety, quality child care, health, discipline, and early learning.

Community organizations throughout Monterey County distribute the Kit and some offer parents additional support to expand on its contents. Plus, many of our distributors provide the Kit to parents before the birth of their baby—a great time to take in the information before life gets busier caring for an infant.

The Kit for New Parents is available for Monterey County, California residents only.
