Prenatal education classes
Learn how to breastfeed before your baby arrives.
I offer two options: a group class at the Ottawa Birth and Wellness Centre, or a private class in the comfort of your own home.
Are you currently pregnant and hoping to breastfeed?Research shows that one of the best ways you can ensure successful breastfeeding is by taking a breastfeeding education class before the birth of your baby. Both the group and private class covers:What to expect in the first weeks & how to tell if your baby is getting enough
