Birth and Beyond Breastfeeding Workshop & Train the Trainer
You are invited to join BreastfeedLA for the Birth and Beyond Breastfeeding Workshop and Train the Trainer Program!
Join us for 2 days to learn the evidence, knowledge and skills participants need to confidently support, establish and protect both early mother-infant attachment and breastfeeding in the hospital setting.
Join us for day 3 for the Train the Trainer portion and take the skills you learn back to your facility to share with your colleagues.
This workshop provides the evidence, knowledge and skills participants need to confidently support, establish and protect both early mother-infant attachment and breastfeeding in the hospital setting.
It will highlight the personal tools necessary to enhance early parent-infant attachment, and help families to listen to and understand the language of the newborn. Emphasis will be on honoring the mother’s beliefs and choices of infant feeding.
This workshop was adapted from California Department of Public Health’s Birth and Beyond California Learner Workshop and updated to meet the staff training objectives required by Baby Friendly USA™ for hospitals that are on the new 4-D Pathway to Baby-Friendly™ designation.
Day 3 is the Train the Trainer component so participants can take the knowledge back to their facilities and train their colleagues.
This workshop is lively and participatory with interactive activities. It is limited to 25 participants.
