Bodyfeeding Assessment Consultation 

2 hour in-home consultation.  I’ll work with you to do a complete bodyfeeding assessment and as needed, latch support / correction, pump education and future planning.  Cost: $120

How am I doing?  Check-in (hourly)

Hourly services to assess bodyfeeding progress, check in on your journey and discuss adjustments as necessary.  This is great for a “I just have a couple of questions” need.  Cost: $40 /hour

Bodyfeeding Group Class

2 1/2 hour comprehensive group class for new parents enables us to take time to answer all your bodyfeeding questions and concerns.  Receiving preemptive education is the best way to avoid bodyfeeding complications, increase confidence and increase bodyfeeding success!  It can also be a fun way to meet other people who are due around the same time and learn from their questions.  Cost: $100

Bodyfeeding Private Class

Maybe you have a history of bodyfeeding but want to do things differently with this baby …
Or want to include your support team in prenatal education …
Or the group class times just don’t work for you …
I offer a bespoke listening, planning and education session to meet you where you’re at and help prepare you to bodyfeed your new baby.  Classes are in your home and last 1 1/2 – 2 hours. Cost: $120
