Preparing to Breastfeed

Feel confident. Feel prepared. Feed your baby your way.

Preparing for your baby and hoping to breastfeed? Or perhaps you want to understand your options around breastfeeding, bottle feeding, combination feeding and expressing?

This 90-minute live 1:1 online session is completely personalised to you, your wishes and your feeding goals.

We'll cover the practical knowledge you need before your baby arrives, helping you feel more confident and prepared for those first days and weeks.

What we'll cover

• How breastfeeding works and what to expect
• Getting breastfeeding off to a positive start
• Feeding cues and how often babies feed
• Positioning and attachment
• What to expect in the first few days
• Expressing and understanding your options
• Bottle feeding and combination feeding
• How your birth experience may affect feeding
• How your partner or support person can help
• What to do if feeding doesn't go to plan
• How to advocate for yourself and your baby

We'll focus on your questions, your wishes and what matters most to you — whether you plan to exclusively breastfeed, combination feed, bottle feed or you're simply not sure yet.

What's included

90-minute live 1:1 online session

Your partner or birth/support person is very welcome to join.

You'll receive a comprehensive PDF handbook to refer back to before and after your baby arrives.

You'll also receive a postnatal check-in call once your baby is here, giving you the opportunity to ask questions, talk through how things are going and get some extra reassurance and support.

How to book

When booking, please select the Monday of the week you would like to undertake the course. I will then be in touch to find a time and date as close to that week as possible.

Once your session is arranged, I'll send you a short pre-course form so I can understand your wishes, goals and any questions you already have.

A £25 non-refundable deposit is required to secure your session. The remaining £45 is due 1 week before your chosen date.

If you're booking within 1 week of your preferred date, full payment of £70 is required at the time of booking.

A little reassurance

You don't need to know exactly how you want to feed your baby before you book.

This session is about giving you the knowledge, confidence and support to make informed choices and feed your baby your way.
