Breastfeeding Education and Support

I am available for home visits, group classes, individual classes, prenatal visits, hospital visits and post-natal visits. My goal is to provide you with the knowledge to arrive at your delivery with plans to breastfeed and support you to successfully breastfeed after delivery and beyond.
