SUMMARY:In Person Breastfeeding Basics - August 19th\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:One of the most important things you can do to prepare for breastfeeding success is educate yourself. This class gives you plenty of opportunity for hands-on practice with dolls\, to get your questions answered\, and learn the fundamentals of breastfeeding success. The class is taught by one of our IBCLCs. \nSpouses/partners are encouraged to attend!  In addition to education\, we know peer support is a critical key to success. That is why we invite each mama into our private Facebook group moderated by our registered nurses and our mentors. This is a safe place to ask honest questions and make lasting relationships with other parents. \nThe result is a breastfeeding education package unlike any other because it is realistic\, practical and entertaining! \nCost – $45 per couple
