The expectant person should register for this class and include the support person's name on the registration page. Please note: We encourage your support person to attend this class with you.

We also want to stress the importance of preparing to breastfeed by reading, taking a class and surrounding yourself with people who will support you in this endeavor. Breastfeeding, while natural, requires some knowledge and encouragement, at times, especially for new moms. This course will help you and your partner with both!
