New Parent Support is a program for military families who are
expecting; have a new baby, or are in need of parenting
information. It is designed to empower expectant and new parents to
meet the challenges of parenthood and Navy life. The NPS program is
located at Naval Station Ingleside but provides support services at NAS
Kingsville on a regular basis. The NPS team provides the following
classes at NAS Kingsville's Fleet & Family Support Center: Baby
on the Way (first trimester); Baby Basics (caring for your newborn);
Breastfeeding Techniques; and Lamaze (birth and beginnings). All
classes are free but require registration through the NAS Kingsville Fleet &
Family Support Center by calling (361) 516-6333, DSN 876-6333.
