Maternity Education: Lactation & Breastfeeding Class
About
Preparing for the arrival of a new baby can be both exciting and overwhelming, especially for first-time parents. Our goal is to help you feel informed, supported, and confident throughout your pregnancy, your baby's birth, and your transition into parenthood. Our Parent Education Classes cover a wide range of topics, including pregnancy, labour and birth, breastfeeding, and early parenting. Facilitated by experienced midwives, these relaxed and interactive sessions provide a welcoming environment where you can learn, share experiences, and ask questions.To further support new mothers, we also offer Lactation & Breastfeeding Education Classes. Led by experienced lactation consultants, these sessions provide practical advice and evidence-based information to help you feel confident with breastfeeding.
Topics include:
Understanding your baby's feeding cues
Positioning and attachment at the breast
Establishing breastfeeding

Helpful information and support for breastfeeding mothers.
A guided tour of the Maternity Ward will be offered following the class, providing an opportunity to become familiar with the environment before the arrival of your baby.
