Breastfeeding 101

Write your awesome label here.
Not just for new parents!
We will cover the breastfeeding basics and more, so you can feed your baby with peace and confidence. We address the biomechanics of lactation (what’s going on in there, anyway?), hunger cues, latch, common issues, pumping, and how to supplement with formula, donor milk, or stored milk if needed.

We also talk through some of the complicated cultural understanding (and misunderstanding) around breastfeeding and pumping. 

This content is great for first-time moms, but it’s just as useful for moms going through childbirth again. Remember--just like children, no two feeding journeys are alike.

AFTER THIS CLASS, YOU’LL BE ABLE TO: 
  • Explain the anatomy and science of breastfeeding and breastmilk 
  • Prepare your mind and body for the changes, challenges, and joys that come with breastfeeding
  • Initiate breastfeeding after birth
  • Safely and successfully breastfeed your baby
  • Navigate challenges related to breastfeeding
  • Travel confidently with baby while breastfeeding
  • Supplement with formula, donor milk, or stored milk
  • Wean without pain
  • Choose breastfeeding gear that works for you
  • Implement strategies for grown-up self-care during breastfeeding
  • Seek help from trusted sources when needed

Our class is on-demand. You will have access to all videos and resources for 2 years from purchase. See all that is included.

Why on-demand? Because adult's brains are similar to a muscle, they need alternating periods of rest and recovery to synthesize new ideas and concepts. When learners receive information in short chunks, rest, reflect, then return is how adults learn best.

Courtney M. Miller, 

RN, BSN, IBCLC, Founder of The Better Boob Lactation

Courtney earned her Bachelors of Science in Nursing from the University of Kentucky in Lexington Kentucky in 2015. She worked as a registered nurse in the adult ICU for 2.5 years before making the switch to Mother-Baby and Labor and Delivery where she spent another 2 years. 

Her passion for breastfeeding began after giving birth to her son in March 2019, and quickly realizing there wasn’t enough readily-available breastfeeding education and support. She became an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant in 2020 and worked as a LC on a postpartum unit in a hospital. Courtney then founded The Better Boob Lactation.

Now she says she has found her calling of helping moms and their families along their breastfeeding journey! Courtney regularly uses her personal breastfeeding experience, along with evidence-based research, to help educate and support the families she works alongside.

Courtney enjoys hiking and traveling with her husband, two boys and dog. She enjoys doing Barre workouts and you can always find her at Target with a Starbucks in hand!

...The format/structure of the class is accessible and straightforward, and the videos are engaging and informative. You can tell the Nurtured Nest team has put a lot of thought and care into creating the content for the class. Very grateful I took the time to complete this class before giving birth - it made a huge difference in my childbirth + postpartum experience!
Nurtured Nest Parent Google Review
Before watching their Childbirth + Postpartum class, I felt VERY underprepared and a little terrified of labor and delivery. After finishing the course, I feel way more confident and now have an arsenal of tools to help with labor and delivery.

...even though I'm not a new mom (currently pregnant with our 2nd child), I still learned lot of useful information that I didn't know before! Being a person that often googles information, there was also comfort in knowing that the info I got from the classes came from professionals that specialize in the topics covered. I love the vision and inspiration behind this organization, and that the classes are created by the experts...
