She also provides education and training to perinatal department staff including basics like latch and positioning assistance to more challenging situations like jaundice, hypoglycemia and establishing a milk supply during maternal/infant separation. Asaiah teaches community prenatal breastfeeding classes while participating in local community meetings on birth and breastfeeding equity, with a vision to establish continuous breastfeeding support for the often underserved community surrounding the Martin Luther King, Jr Community Hospital campus.
