HOW DOES PAYMENT WORK FOR THIS GROUP PROGRAM?
You pay per session you'd like to attend!
HOW MUCH DOES THIS PROGRAM COST?
Each session is $25. For this price, you'll be getting a 1 hour session with me and the other group members to ask questions, learn about new topics/research, discover tips and tricks, and adopt best practices.
HOW FAR IN ADVANCE DO I HAVE TO SIGN UP FOR A SESSION?
At least 12 hours in advance.
HOW DO I KNOW IF THIS PROGRAM IS THE ONE FOR ME?
I have 3 types of breastfeeding services: 1:1 counseling, meal planning, and this Breastfeeding Support Group. 1:1 counseling is for moms who want individualized, undivided support. Meal planning is for moms who have the act of breastfeeding down, but want to know which foods are best to support their feeding. This Breastfeeding Support Group is for moms who generally want to learn more about breastfeeding, have come across random problems they want to troubleshoot, & want to have a forum that they can come back to each week for support.
