What a great idea, to do a bf class at a play center! I don't have
any curricula on hand, but I would suggest lots of class participation.
A brief get to know you exercise, and find out from the Moms what
are their perceptions of bf so that you can address what is on
their minds. Within that frame it's usually not hard to work in the
basics of what you want them to know: supply and demand, sleeping,
bf in pubic, where to go if there are problems, etc. An hour is enough
to find out and address their concerns/misperceptions, get in
some basics, and let people know where to go for more information.

Hope this helps,
