PRENATAL LACTATION CLASS
Before baby arrives, you and your partner may want to get prepared for infant feeding. Scheduling a breastfeeding class in the comfort of your home is a wonderful start. My classes are 1 hour and include a breastfeeding packet full of useful information. We can discuss your breastfeeding goals and I can offer tips that I hope will instill confidence as you enter into parenthood.
