Antenatal Breastfeeding Preparation
An antenatal breastfeeding preparation session can help you establish your feeding goals and set you up for the best possible start to your feeding journey. For breastfeeding to be well and properly established, getting off to the best start immediately at the birth of the baby can make all the difference in the world.
I can offer you and your partner a breastfeeding preparation session in your home or virtually. We will also cover alternative feeding methods and expressing milk. If a number of your friends are expecting I can also run these sessions for small groups. I will provide you with key information as well as discuss your goals, questions or concerns you have.
Whether you chose a session just for you and your partner or decide to complete the course with a number of your friends we will cover everything you need to get breast feeding off to the best start. I will equip you with the knowledge you need to understand milk production and enable you to feed your baby confidently and comfortably.
What we will cover:
- Breast anatomy
- How we produce milk
- Breastfeeding benefits
- The golden hour and skin to skin contact
- Responsive feeding
- Feeding cues
- Positions for breastfeeding
- The importance of latch
- Signs feeding is going well
- Milk volumes
- Cluster feeding
- Newborn weight gain / weight loss
- Hand expressing milk
- Various for expressing milk (pumping)
- Safe breastmilk storage
- Alternative feeding methods - syringe, cup, finger, paced bottle feeding
There’s no need to worry if baby brain has already kicked in. You will be provided with leaflets to pack in your postnatal bag so you have key information easily accessible to you when your baby is first born.
You will also be given a period of access to my Padlet which includes leaflets and videos on the content covered during the session as well as other useful, credible websites.
If you are not sure if the course is right for you then please call or WhatsApp me or schedule a call and i’ll be happy to discuss the session with you.
Antenatal Breastfeeding Preparation
£150 To £180
Individual Sessions
During an individual or couples session I can tailor the information to suit your specific needs. I can offer you this information as one 3 hour slot or two 90 minute slots.
If you are at least 32 weeks pregnant and have no risks of preterm birth then I can support you with hand expressing your colostrum (the first milk).
Should your support person wish to only attend part of the class I can structure it in such a way that the most pertinent information for partners is offered in a single block. This can affect the flow of the session but I understand the constraints of time.
Key Points:
- In your home (South West London) or by video call.
- Around 28 to 37 weeks of pregnancy.
- Support partners welcome.
- Support with hand expressing colostrum.
- Easy to follow leaflets for your postnatal bag.
- Complimentary access to my online breastfeeding course providing you with videos and supportive materials.
- Evening and weekend appointments also available.
- 3 hour session £150
- Two 90 minute sessions £180
Group Antenatal Breastfeeding Preparation

Group Sessions
If you have a friend who is also expecting, private group sessions can be arranged for up to 6 people. This would be hosted in one of your group’s homes.
This can be a good opportunity to understand feeding further and can be a great addition to any group antenatal classes you are already attending.
Access to a Padlet will be provided which has easy to read leaflets and videos covering many feeding topics. These also serve as great revision for closer to the birth or even when your baby has arrived.
I am more than happy to speak with you privately after the class or on the phone should you have a specific question you felt unable to ask in the group session.
Key Points:
- Up to 6 individuals or 3 couples
- Around 3 to 3.5 hours
- Around 28 to 37 weeks of pregnancy.
- Evening and weekend appointments also available.
