    Your New Baby

    The birth of a new baby is a momentous occasion and your care providers at California Pacific share your excitement in this great celebration.

    Each baby is unique! Each is an individual with a unique temperament and personality. Your newborn varies from others in a number of ways including appearance, activity level, intensity of responses, and sleeping and eating patterns. Your baby is a wonderful puzzle and it will take time for you to get to know all of the pieces. As you learn more about your baby, you will gain a better understanding of his/her temperament, which will help you relate to your baby in a more satisfying way. Enjoy this special time as you become a family!
