Out of my three births, this was the most joyous and "easiest" and I attribute that to [our doula’s] wonderful help and care.

Breastfeeding Preparation Packages

Preparing for Breastfeeding

Our lactation team is happy to provide you with the resources and information you need to establish a satisfying and effective breastfeeding relationship with your baby(ies). We believe that mothers learn from their babies, and babies learn from their mothers in a wonderful unfolding in the first days and weeks. As lactation specialists, we support the process.

Everyone I spoke to at Birthways before and after my son's birth helped me feel like there was a community of women who were genuinely interested in helping my family get off to a smooth start, both with the birth and beyond. I am so grateful!
