This package is essentially a Private Lactation & Newborn Care class, designed to meet your individual needs.  Options include:

Prenatal Lactation-based Support:
  • A physical exam, including screening for flat or inverted nipples, breast changes during pregnancy and early signs of colostrum production
  • Discussion of the realities of nursing, and exploration of any emotional, logistical, or other challenges that may arise.
  • Breastfeeding Education, including the supplies that may be needed, the best locations and set-up for a successful nursing relationship, what to expect and how to latch and nurse the baby optimally after birth.

Prenatal Newborn Care-based Support:
  • Review of what supplies may be needed, ideal set-up of baby's nursery, care and play spaces, tips on safety and ease of use.
  • Newborn Care Education, including diapering, swaddling, bathing, trimming nails, holding in various positions and transferring person-to-person, what to expect after birth, soothing, sleep, and various other topics.
