Do you want to breastfeed your baby? Are you unsure? Perhaps you are just so overwhelmed with all of the information out there that you don't know where to start! Well don't worry because this mindful breastfeeding course will give you an empowered knowledge about preparing and learning to breastfeed and what to expect in the early hours, days and weeks after your baby is born. 

​​

We offer a welcoming, relaxed and completely non-judgemental approach where you are encouraged to really focus on what YOUR breastfeeding/feeding preferences are at the end of the course.
