The average family spends hundreds of dollars on breastfeeding supplies, lactation consultations, or FM if breastfeeding doesn’t go as planned. This class sets you up for success from the beginning of your postpartum.
“It was such an enlightening time learning from Eliza on breastfeeding. Her class boosted my confidence to start the journey and I know I'll not be alone as she is like a caring friend to reach out for if I face any challenges or question. Super recommend her classes for mommies to be!”
— Clara C.

FAQs

The Responsive Parenting & Fourth Trimester topics are more informational-based and less interactive in a live setting.
To allow more time to focus on in-depth breastfeeding learning and practice during the live session, this part will be sent to you afterwards as a bonus 20-minute recording.
You'll have access to this recording for up to 6 months so you can review it whenever you'd like and allow you to learn at your own pace.

Depending on the workshop, the minimum is usually 5 couples or 10 pax.

No.
There are tons of antennal classes out there to prepare you for birth and labour. I would suggest you to attend a prenatal birth class that is taught by a birth doula or a certified birthing educator, whom are highly certified to educate parents on this topic.
One example is Maud, a Certified Hypnobirthing Educator from BlissInBirth.
To learn swaddling, bathing, burping and changing diaper for a newborn comes with just a few days of practice in the hospital and at home. The nurses at the hospital will demonstrate to you upon request, or you can join an antenatal class from hospitals.
-
No refunds are allowed.
You may transfer your slot to another person, whom you have to find on your own accord, or use the fees you have paid to offset any upcoming classes or a lactation consultation.
-
If in any event that you cannot attend the class, you can either transfer your slot to another person, whom you have to find on your own accord, or use the fees you have paid to offset any upcoming classes or a lactation consultation.
