Are you expecting a baby soon and feeling a little nervous about keeping that tiny human alive? You're not alone, and you don't have to figure it out as you go. This is especially for you if you're having your first baby far from family, in a country whose system is still new to you.

This 2.5 hour, evidence-based newborn care class will help you bring your baby home feeling steady and prepared.

We cover:
✹ Normal newborn behavior, senses, and reflexes
✹ What normal sleep and feeding patterns actually look like
✹ Hands-on practice with diaper changing, dressing, and bathing
✹ How to know when something's normal, when to watch, and when to call

You'll also get a bonus ebook included with your class purchase.

Your baby wants to feed again and it's only been 45 minutes. So you think: is something wrong? Do I not have enough milk?

Usually nothing is wrong.

So much early breastfeeding panic comes from guides that say "feed every 2 to 3 hours." They're trying to make it simple. But babies haven't read those guides. Cluster feeding, feeding little and often, wanting to be close, that's normal newborn behavior, not a sign you're failing.

The thing that changes everything is learning to read your baby instead of the clock. Watch your baby before you watch the time.

That's what we cover in my prenatal breastfeeding class. The next one is August 12 in Eindhoven, in English. Link in bio if you'd like to join.

For any expecting parents planning to breastfeed 🤍

I'm holding an in-person prenatal breastfeeding class in Eindhoven on August 12, in English.

One thing I wish more parents knew beforehand: breastfeeding isn't about watching the clock. So much early panic ("is my baby feeding too often? do I have enough milk?") comes from guides that say "feed every 2-3 hours," when really you learn to read your baby. That's a lot of what we cover.

We'll go through how milk is made, latch and positioning, hunger and fullness cues, and how to handle the common problems before they throw you off, plus what products you actually need. Partners welcome.
