Nursing your baby is a relationship that is best nourished with support and understanding. Our comprehensive course will help build your confidence while providing you with a solid understanding of how milk is produced and maintained, ways to prevent common complications, and how to navigate the nursing relationship as it unfolds in the first few weeks and months. Our course covers the basics of milk production, how to know that your baby is getting enough, proper positioning and latch for successful and comfortable nursing, tips for meeting the individual's nursing goals, feeding misconceptions, information on storing and expressing milk, and where (and when!) to go for additional support once your baby arrives. Nursing supplies and products are also discussed and techniques and tips to ease the nursing relationship are shared.

Our self-paced Infant Care 101 is your guide for navigating the first few weeks with your sweet little baby. This course is based on our popular in-person and live virtual classes but offers the opportunity to learn at your own pace and review material as necessary. Topics include physical characteristics of newborns and what to expect in the first few hours and days after birth, basics of newborn behavior and physiology, signs of illness and knowing when to call the pediatrician, the basics of diapering, umbilical cord care, care for the circumcised and intact penis, and bathing. Tips and suggestions for soothing a fussy baby are discussed as well including touch, massage, and swaddling. The class also covers creating realistic expectations for the new family dynamic. This course will leave you feeling better informed as well as confident and excited to begin the journey of parenting!
