The work of a Doula is essential and imperative to the successful start of a family's breastfeeding journey! That is why I am excited to offer this workshop which is designed to help you - help your clients!
You will learn new skills and techniques to better serve your clients with breastfeeding in the immediate postpartum period and thereafter. This workshop will be informative, relatable and practical! You will walk away with tips and tricks that you can start using right away and have a better understanding of the tools and resources available to nursing parents! You will feel more confident in your abilities to assist mothers after birth and in turn, they will be more confident from the first latch and beyond!
After this workshop, you will have a better understanding of:
1. How to successfully guide a mother and baby during their first latching experience after birth.
2. The importance of prenatal colostrum harvesting, skin-to-skin, and hand expression
