- Understanding Breastfeeding
Breastfeeding is one of the best things you can do for your baby! Consider attending our two-hour "Understanding Breastfeeding” class in person. With a little practice and patience, breastfeeding will become second nature. We will cover essential information on the benefits of breastfeeding for you and your baby, how your body makes milk, what an effective latch looks like, different breastfeeding positions, how to know if your baby is feeding well, and the basics of expressing or pumping your milk.
- Understanding Your Newborn
Since newborns don't come with an owner's manual, consider attending our two-hour "Understanding Your Newborn” class in person. We will cover essential information on caring for your baby in the first six weeks, things like what behavior to expect from your newborn, understanding crying and comforting, feeding, bathing, diapering, how to keep your baby safe and healthy, and when you should call the doctor. This interactive class helps parents through the transition from hospital to life at home.
