Breastfeeding Class at Gold Coast Doulas

Breastfeeding: Getting a Strong Start – December 2025

This comprehensive virtual course is taught by Board Certified Lactation Consultant Kelly Wysocki-Emery.

Get access to the Breastfeeding: Getting A Strong Start course to watch on your own first…THEN get access to a virtual Q&A session to ask any lingering questions.  This education is a hybrid model (some learning on your own via video course and then meeting with a lactation consultant to bring it all into focus).

What you get:

  • 3 hours of up-to-date, solution-based breastfeeding video content culled from a lactation consultant working in the field for nearly 30 years
  • Access to video content for as many babies as you have (forever)
  • Access to one free, live virtual Q&A with an IBCLC (Internationally Board-Certified Lactation Consultant) to answer any lingering questions
  • We will cover everything and still leave time for pumping/work/bottle questions. Having your partner in crime join is highly recommended, as they will be a crucial part of the teamwork needed to breastfeed.
Get all of your nagging questions answered during this 2-hour class.

To register just fill out the registration form on the website and let us know which class date you’re interested in. This class is part of our Saturday Series, so check out the other classes happening on the same day!
