In-Person Breastfeeding Course

April 12, 2025

Breastfeeding is natural, but there are skills to be learned that can help promote successful breastfeeding. In this two-hour in-person class, our lactation consultant will help familiarize expectant parents with the knowledge and skills they need to get breastfeeding off to a great start.

Attendance is limited to the expectant mother and 1 additional person, therefore ONLY the expectant mother needs to register for this class. Registration will close once we have reached capacity.

Registration is required. Click the yellow "Register Now" button to the right to register for the class. Please be sure to provide your email address.

As the class date approaches, you will receive an email from the instructor with additional information about the class. Your instructor will meet you in the Tower Lobby to take you to the classroom.

Our in-person breastfeeding classes are being offered on one Saturday morning each month from 9:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m.

We look forward to you joining us!
