Christian Mitchell, a Birth/Bereavement Doula, Birth Educator and Perinatal Wellness Coach from Westlake Louisiana, currently volunteering at my local pregnancy resource center. I took it upon myself to learn more about how to better support my clients who desire to breastfeed by completing that H.U.G. Your Baby training. I am grateful for the opportunity to be a Certified H.U.G. Teacher!
Although I do not have children myself I love assisting mothers’ who desire to breastfeed and bond with their newborn babies. Many of the pregnancy resource center clients are new moms and may not have grown up under the best of circumstances nor do they have the support needed to successfully bond with their baby. It has been wonderful to learn the SOS, zones, and developmental stages of a baby. I believe this training will help me to be a better advocate for mothers and their children.
