Breastfeeding 911: Help for Hurdles
A comfortable environment that welcomes you to bring baby. Pre-registration is not required--drop-ins welcomed.

This class is a triage style group where you can learn about achieving a comfortable latch and have a consultant observe you feeding your baby. It is not as in-depth as a one-on-one consultation, though.

You will be able to measure your baby’s intake using our scale and discuss the challenges you are having breastfeeding as well. Many mothers will not need additional care, but if further treatment is recommended, you will be referred to one of our Lactation Consultants.

This group is for breastfeeding women with babies up to 6 months and is facilitated by certified lactation consultants.

To respect the privacy of some mothers, we please ask that dads kindly wait outside of the classroom.--thank you.

Pre-registration is not required--drop-ins welcomed.

*scholarships available for those who cannot afford the class fee. Call our store for details.
