Confidence in Breastfeeding

A Prenatal Breastfeeding Class and In Home Lactation Assessment for Expecting Families

Welcome. I am so happy you have chosen to take the first step in achieving your breastfeeding goals. Along with education and support you are on your way to success. This class is designed to instill confidence in yourself and guide you on your unique breastfeeding journey. Talking about and preparing for what to expect in the early days and the weeks to follow will help you to recognize common behaviors and when to reach out for support.

 I am passionate about breastfeeding and helping women to achieve their breastfeeding goals. An important and crucial part of this journey is trusting in the process and your ability to nourish your baby. It doesn’t always come easy for everyone, I want to help you have a positive, enjoyable breastfeeding relationship with your baby.

I am a CLEC (certified lactation educator counselor - certified through UCSD). I have been teaching and supporting families in the Orange County area for over 5 years and have supported over 160 families in achieving their breastfeeding goals. As no two breastfeeding journeys are the same, I am here to listen, help guide you to trust in the process and lead you on your journey.
