I have just enrolled my 22 month old into this program and this
evening had to attend a compulsory seminar on the subject. The
program is for children from birth on. There were about 70 mums and
dads at the seminar and about 15 had babies with them, aged 5 weeks
to 5 months old. Every single baby present was being breastfed, I
was so impressed. Not only that, but the lecturer, Kelly Rae, made
numerous references to breastfeeding being such a positive thing to
do and even spoke about breastfeeding your baby in the bath to help
with the childs preperation for swimming. I thought I would share
that with you all because I really thought she deserved a pat on the
back and that at least here in Australia, you can recommend the
program, or at least Kelly (Perth based) to your clients.
