Meet Katie
I’m katie madden
RN, BSN, IBCLC
I’ve been working with new families for 18 years in Hospital, Birth Center, and Home settings.
I help the families I work with understand that there is no one right way to breastfeed, nor does it need to be done perfectly.
I approach breastfeeding with the humor, tough love, and compassion that you would get from a close friend (you know, the one who calls you out when you aren’t being your best self).
Prenatal Workshop
How to feed your newborn
Breastfeed | Bottle Feed | Pump
A really important question that all pregnant families need to consider: How are you planning to feed your newborn baby?
This class is a realistic approach to breastfeeding (including pumping & bottle feeding) for expectant parents.
Plan to take this class right as your enter your third trimester – around 28 weeks pregnant. Don’t leave it until 32 weeks or later if you can avoid it. You need to know what to do if baby shows up early!
