Breastfeeding: Getting a Great Start

There’s so much confusing and often conflicting information about breastfeeding out there. Let’s spend a Saturday morning 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 a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist and IBCLC Intern with more than 6 years of experience supporting new families on their breastfeeding journeys.

This class is $100 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 coffee and tea available. Please bring any snacks you’d like to have and we’ll be finished in time for lunch!
