Meet Your Instructor
I have been teaching Childbirth Classes since my youngest daughter was born. Educating and working with new parents is my passion. As well as my focus on education I love helping families with their new babies in my role as a postpartum doula helping new parents as they adjust to their new role! have taught at several hospitals and currently teach webinar based classes as well as on-demand classes. The beauty of virtual classes in no matter where I live I'm able to share my expertise.

When is the best time?
If you are breastfeeding the ideal time to introduce a bottle is around the age of 3 weeks. By this time they are established at the breast
Swaddling
Swaddling helps babies to settle for sleep by imitating the womb environment. Once your baby is rolling over, use a sleep sack with their arms free.
