By discussing baby’s early feeding cues, how to have a good latch, different breastfeeding positions and natural solutions to common breastfeeding problems, Taya put my and my husband’s minds a little more at ease. We now feel much more prepared for this amazing journey. Taya was very thorough with her explanations and offered plenty of time for questions and discussions. She provided us with resources to bring home, as well as links to websites and videos that provide even more information - Cynthia
