"What was the best part of the class? Mandi! I found Mandi to be so approachable, straight forward and relaxed.
"We left feeling so positive and the 'fear' of something not going right with breastfeeding has been eliminated. We are so confident now of what we are going into and how it will work for us. What seemed so hard before we got there (thanks to all those old wives' tales) now seems like it will be a total breeze, and so beneficial to the baby.
"My hubby and I aren't really 'class' people so are always a bit reluctant about attending things such as this, but we left so informed and so positive about everything that I will not be able to recommend you enough. (I know that I have already told all my pregnant friends!)"

"Lots of great information and lots of laughs -- fun and very informative. I like the informal atmosphere. And I want my own teepee."

"I liked: Having someone give clear and sensible justifications for not putting the baby in a basinet. Discussing the 'sidecar' solution as a practical and safe (given the normal guidelines) way of sleeping with the baby. Loved the balloons to show the latch. Great idea.
"All in all, I wish that the other antenatal classes covered this rather than seeming to stop at the birth. I feel better prepared after this course."

"I liked the ability to ask questions in a relaxed, non-judgemental arena. The balloons gave a very graphic demonstration of the effect of a good latch. This was very useful in understanding the effect of a good vs. poor latch. Appreciated the discussion of breastfeeding in relation to the rest of baby care - taking a holistic view of breast feeding made a lot of sense, but doesn't seem to normally be mentioned."
