Prenatal Breastfeeding Workshop
Hosted by Kristen Monaghan
International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC)
Lactation Educator (LE)
Come and meet other parents-to-be and learn about breastfeeding!
At Nourish Them we offer comprehensive support to parents and infants at each stage of their feeding journey, and that starts with prenatal education to set you up for success in the early days of feeding.
​
As your baby approaches full term there is a lot of focus on learning about labour and delivery, in order to prepare for the challenging and incredible process of birth. But many of our families tell us that birth was actually the easier part! Most parents wish they had learned more about feeding to feel more prepared when arriving home from the hospital with their tiny baby.
