This is a community drop in group facilitated by Sara Manske IBCLC of Essential Lactation and Briana Hodgson IBCLC of The Latchmaker. Our goal is to provide a group for new parents to connect with each other. One of us will be present at each group and an infant scale will be available for you to weigh your baby. 

This is an inclusive group and families present may use different terms to describe infant feeding (examples: breastfeeding, nursing, chestfeeding, bodyfeeding, bottle feeding…) or themselves (examples: parent, mom, baba, zaza…). Please respect other families and ask if you don’t know. We will use neutral terms when talking generally and your terms when talking with you one on one. 

At this time masking is optional. Please stay home if you are sick. We may ask that you mask upon arrival depending on community spread of infectious disease. Thanks for helping keep our vulnerable population healthy!

Older children welcome! Partners may accompany for drop off and pick up, check the group announcements to find out if partners can stay for the entire group on the day you attend. This would be for the privacy and comfort of nursing parents-thanks for understanding!

We hope you find your people here 😊
