There’s so much confusing and often conflicting information about breastfeeding out there. Let’s spend a Saturday afternoon learning how to get the best start on your lactation journey!
This class will cover the basics of:
how our bodies make milk
milk composition in the early days/weeks
the “Golden Hour” and first latch
proper latching techniques and positions
breast and nipple care
how to know your baby is getting enough milk
how to support the lactating parent
The instructor is an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) with more than 8 years of experience supporting new families on their breastfeeding journeys, first as a doula and then as an IBCLC.
This class is $125 and includes admission for you and a partner/support person. We encourage the non-lactating partner/support to attend so they can know how best to offer help!
We will have water, coffee, tea, and light snacks available. Please feel free to bring your own snacks/drinks!
