Breastfeeding Basics

Anything but basic—this comprehensive, evidence-informed class is designed to give families a strong foundation in breastfeeding before baby arrives. Together we explore the physiology of lactation, what to realistically expect in the early days, normal newborn feeding patterns, and the wide range of normal infant behaviors that can often leave parents questioning themselves.

You will learn practical positioning and latch techniques, how milk supply is established, how to recognize effective feeding, and simple strategies that support a comfortable and sustainable breastfeeding relationship. We also discuss common early challenges and how to navigate them with confidence.

This interactive class encourages questions and conversation, with dedicated time for open Q&A so you can bring your most pressing concerns. Each session is led by an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), ensuring the information you receive is evidence-based, current, and grounded in real clinical experience.

The goal is simple: to help you enter the postpartum period informed, prepared, and confident as you begin feeding your baby.
