Breastfeeding is a learned skill for mums and babies alike. Get the practical skills to help you and your baby establish breastfeeding, as well as solutions for common challenges. Come away feeling confident and prepared to breastfeed.

The class expands on the knowledge gained at hospital antenatal classes, and prepares you for the vital days, weeks and months after your baby's birth.

ABA's face-to-face classes are delivered by Breastfeeding Counsellors and Educators. You will usually watch a new mum give a demonstration of breastfeeding and can talk with her about those early days.

You will learn:

*How breastfeeding works

*Getting your baby positioned and ready for a comfortable feed

*Reading your baby’s feeding and other cues

*How to tell if your baby is getting enough milk

*Managing the early weeks and possible breastfeeding challenges 

*Where to get help and support when you need it
