Lactation Consultation | Offered by: Michele
Breastfeeding isn’t always as easy or as hard as it is made out to be. Every mom has her own goals and intentions when it comes to feeding her baby(ies). A certified lactation counselor can be invaluable with guidance and instruction while keeping each family’s unique needs in mind. Lactation counselors have experience helping women with many breastfeeding problems, including sore nipples, mastitis, low milk supply, over-abundant milk supply, breast reduction surgery, and babies with failure to thrive, thrush, jaundice, poor latch, etc. An initial assessment is done in the mom’s home and follow-up visits are by phone or in person, as needed.
Maternity & Infant Massage Therapy | Offered by: Michele & Ranelle
Maternity massage spans the early weeks of pregnancy until the moments before birth and through the postpartum year. The relaxation and pain relief can provide a sweet respite from the physical and emotional stresses of a mother’s remarkable transformation. Maternity massage promotes bonding with the baby and can also strengthen a mother’s self awareness and confidence for birth. Massage techniques and positions are adapted for the comfort and safety of expectant and new mothers. Learning infant massage in a small group setting or one-on-one can be one of the most fun and rewarding ways for parents and older siblings to communicate and deepen their bonds with the new wee ones! In addition to nurturing the baby’s neurological and emotional development, infant massage has practical daily benefits of promoting better sleep and digestion and reducing periods of fussiness.
