Class Attendee Testimonials
“Excellent, informative class. Lots of info is put in a clear, understandable manner. Definitely answered a lot of my questions and helped with some of my anxiety about BF. I would recommend this class to anyone looking for info and support on BF.”
~Shannan
“This was a wonderful class with my time well spent. It was clear that the class was led with knowledge and care for the well-being of the expectant mothers. There was plenty of space for questions, videos, and examples which made it easy to understand everything that was being explained in class. I would highly recommend this class to anyone who is new to lactation or even has previous knowledge. There is always something new you can take away from class.”
~ Michelle R.
“Hands down this is a no-brainer if you are interested in taking a prenatal breastfeeding class. The information was provided in a clear and concise way which was easy to follow and digest. Instructors were fantastic and covered all scenarios.”
~Rebecca
"I attended a very informative breastfeeding class at the Gaea Breastfeeding Center. Cathy and Carrie were wonderful, supportive, and encouraging as instructors. It was well worth the nominal class fee, as I got a lot out of the class as a first time expectant mother. I wouldn't hesitate to reach out to them if I need any lactation assistance in the future."
