Breastfeeding support: Individual sessions to help troubleshoot early breastfeeding problems. We also offer prenatal breastfeeding classes and newborn care classes in the privacy of your home.

 Birth Counselling
   
Pregnancy is an emotional, physical and spiritual journey. An expectant mother's thoughts and emotions, the
physical changes she feels within her body all impact on how she chooses to birth her baby, which will be a life
transforming event. These sessions help to provide the
mother with a safe, non-stressed environment where she can ask questions, talk freely, and gain advice and support.
