What Expectant Moms are Saying:

A trusted and reliable source

I felt as though I was able to learn about breastfeeding from a trusted and reliable source. You can tell Linda has a lot of experience and knows what she’s talking about, so I trust what she says. I feel much more confident to start my breastfeeding journey now and feel excited about it! I felt as though I learned lots of things that I couldn’t find on Google! I loved getting the bottle, swaddle, and breastfeeding pillow recommendations as well. I also liked how she gave my husband some ways he can help.

Wonderful experience

My overall experience has been wonderful! Linda and Nicole have made me feel secure and comfortable going into the birthing process. I feel more equipped with the material that was given. I also liked that this class was smaller, and the instructors made us feel comfortable asking any question.

Good and practical advice

These classes make me and my husband feel better prepared for what comes after birth. As a couple who has no family or close friends living near us, we need all the help we can get. This class was very informative, with lots of good and practical advice.

Taking the fear out of breastfeeding

Lots of good, solid information taking the fear out of breastfeeding, and presenting all of the reasons why it is beneficial to baby.

Very engaging

Nicole was a very engaging speaker and made us feel comfortable and safe.

About the Class:

This class is led by an experienced registered nurse (RN) and an International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and has a small-group, personalized workshop feel.

Breastfeeding can be challenging and stressful, but it doesn’t always have to be. We’ll cover the most common questions (and challenges) that come up with breastfeeding in the beginning and share their solutions with you BEFORE you welcome your baby.

Some examples include: How will you know that your baby is getting enough milk? What’s the difference between colostrum and milk, and when can you expect to transition from one to the other? Which breast pump is best? How do you safely store breast milk once you’re successfully pumping….and when is it okay to start?
