Multiples & Preemie Care Certificate Course
Twins and Triplets are on the rise and it can be a rewarding and challenging job. Often multiples are born early which comes with a unique set of challenges. With this increased risk of being born premature, it is important for caregivers to understand the special care multiples will need to thrive. Learn how to care for multiples including newborn infants. Students will learn the unique care techniques and strategies that are particularly unique to multiples.
This course is great for newborn infant caregivers who would like care for or specialize in twins and triplet newborn care. The multiples care and preemie care training includes a certification and reference material. You can use this training as an expansion of your current newborn infant care knowledge or add this as an additional service offered for families who exclusively need multiples and/or preemie care support.
Multiples are definitely more work but they are so cute and I love it! Once you know what you are doing and how to manage twins and triplets, you will see that it isn't as difficult as you imagine.
