Antenatal Breastfeeding Class

personalised and in the comfort of your own home

"To be prepared is half the victory"

Miguel de Cervantes

Why is this class for you?

Do you:

Want to breastfeed your baby but have lots of questions?
Want to know what to expect when you choose to breastfeed your baby and what it is really like?
Wonder if you will be able to breastfeed?
Feel anxious after hearing lots of scary stories from friends and other people?
Feel really passionate about sharing that unique bond and giving your baby all the goodness of your own milk?

Stack the odds in your favour for a successful and satisfying breastfeeding journey!!

How it works:

A 2 to 3 hour relaxed session, completely tailored to your needs, which includes a nourishing, home-baked snack.

We will cover all the basics of breastfeeding, including demos and practice with weighted dolls, while allowing plenty of time for any questions or concerns you may have. I will also share lots of helpful resources.

All in the comfort of your own home, any time that suits you before the birth of your baby.

Total price for the antenatal session: £125 - which includes a FREE 1 hour follow-up any time after the birth of your baby, to make sure you feel confident and any adjustments can be made to help breastfeeding go smoothly!

A small group session can be arranged at an adjusted price per person, if you have any friends who are interested. Contact me to discuss this option!

Further follow-up support can be booked per hour any time after the birth, should you need more guidance to get breastfeeding off to the best possible start.

As a postnatal doula, I offer support with the normal course of breastfeeding and I can guide you in the early days to make your breastfeeding journey go as smoothly as possible.

For more specialised support with complex breastfeeding issues, you can contact me in my capacity as an IBCLC (certified Lactation Consultant) via my website Thrive Lactation Care.
