Lactation Classes and Support

Resolve your breastfeeding struggles and get your feeding questions answered by an Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant and a Possums certified practitioner.

Danielle Sharon, Psy.D., IBCLC offers a wide range of expert breastfeeding classes including a comprehensive prenatal breastfeeding class, which is wonderful to take with your partner or anyone who will be supporting you. Topics include positioning and latch, making sure your baby is getting enough, sore nipples, growth spurts, cluster feeding, increasing milk supply, oversupply, pumping, breastfeeding and going back to work or school, weaning, introduction of solids, breastfeeding and medications and substances, nutrition and food sensitivities, and breastfeeding myths.

Overcoming Obstacles

It is my hope and passion to give you all of the information to set you up for breastfeeding success! I am confident that with the right tools and support, you can overcome almost any breastfeeding obstacle.

Learning to breastfeed is like learning a new dance with a new partner. It takes time, patience, and practice. The right support and encouragement can bolster you to help you gain the confidence and skills you need to be successful to the point where it feels easy and natural.

I would love to help guide you so that you can reap the rewards of this beautiful experience with your baby.

I want to really thank you. I’ve really tapped into my motherly intuition the past month especially and caring for Z based on what feels right and with the mindset that the more affection and comfort I can give him the better. Instead of trying to stick to these silly rules people have these days about feeding and napping which I feel results in not tending to a baby’s needs. A few things you’ve said has given me permission to do what feels right for him and really spoil him with love and I see how content (unless overly tired or gassy) he is and how he leans into me and L for comfort.

So thank you - Sabrina M.

“It was my greatest desire to breastfeed my daughter, but from day one it was very challenging. My daughter was not great at nursing and weight gain was a tremendous struggle that continued for months. Danielle worked with us faithfully over those weeks and months. Her expertise, kindness, and understanding were a tremendous blessing to our family. My daughter is now nine months old. We are still nursing, and there is no doubt that we would not have made it this far without Danielle's help."
