Birthing, Bonding and Breastfeeding

If you’re interested in getting into the field of lactation, I highly recommend taking Christy’s CLE course! I took her training in 2014 and it was such a great decision! She is extremely knowledgeable. The training is packed full of tons of amazing info. Not to mention Christy makes the curriculum super fun and interesting. Don’t miss out when she’s in your area!

Excellent teacher and material shared. Christy Jo really knows her stuff about breastfeeding, the laws, techniques. research etc. By the end of the course you will realize you are prepared to be the go-​to person where you work to answer breastfeeding questions from fellow staff and patients, clients, family, friends etc.

I love Christy Jo! She was so amazing to learn from. I can’t say enough good about this woman. Her knowledge and fun personality made the long course go by so quickly. I learned things from her that I did not learn in my postpartum doula training or in my lactation education for my IBCLC. So worth your time and money!

Amazing CLE course! I took this course to expand my doula business and it was a great addition. Christy is an amazing teacher :) Thank you for a great CLE course!

I was a NICU RN when I took a Lactation Consultant class with Christy. It totally changed my life!
I met a lot of cool friends through her: Doulas, other LC’s, a placenta (encapsulation) lady, other nurses, many mom’s, etc. I learned so much, not only about lactation, but about birthing, attachment parenting, and so many other topics! All this learning led me to change my career and now I am a L&D RN as well!
After the course, I completed practice hours following/​shadowing an IBCLC in a hospital setting and then I took my test and became an IBCLC as well.
In the mean time I had a baby (my first). I had a natural childbirth and I practiced EBF for 6 – 7 months and attachment parenting (co-​sleeping/​baby-​wearing, etc.) Now she is 20 months and we’re still breastfeeding!
Oh! And I can’t forget the Breastfeeding Café that takes place in Banning, CA on Wed mornings from 10 – 11 AM. My daughter loved going there to play with the other kids while I chatted with the other moms and had a nice cup of coffee… We discussed about our experiences and helped and supported each other! I just moved to MD now and I miss the BF Café! Maybe I’ll have to start one around here :)

I took Christy Jo’s CLE class at the beginning of October in the East Bay… Christy Jo is wonderful! I learned so much and in such an enthusiastic passionate way. I am so happy I decided on this training and on this trainer!

I refer every breastfeeding mother I see to the «Breastfeeding Café» in Banning, on Wednesdays. We are so fortunate to have the dedicated support in our local area.

Christy-​Jo has such a wonderful way of bringing breastfeeding to the mainstream (again)! The Breastfeeding CLE class was awesome. Her positive enthusiasm, hands-​on educational tools and deep knowledge in her field are awesome.
Her leadership, innovation and effectiveness in presenting breastfeeding to expectant parents, educators, lactation consultants, nurses and physicians is a credit to the field.
If you need the best, Christy-​Jo delivers!

The Breastfeeding CLE class I took from Christy was great! She has such a passion for what she does and she gets you excited to learn. She caters to all learning types and makes the learning very interactive. I left her class excited to continue my journey into the Lactation field. I would highly recommend taking her class to anyone interested in supporting others in breastfeeding. It is such a rewarding relationship to the mother and baby.

Christy has been my teacher now for 2 different certifications. She is amazing, a wonderful teacher and mentor. I would highly reccomend any of her trainings, doula services, lactation services, or childbirth classes. Her children’s book is also a favorite in our home!

I took Christy Jo’s CLE training last May. She is an energetic, personable, sweet instructor and obviously passionate about the subject matter! I personally found that my learning style was quite different from her teaching style, which was a little difficult, but even so I’m VERY glad that I took the class, and I have had opportunities as a doula to use Christy’s teaching with my clients.

Christy is an amazingly energetic and knowledgeable instructor and mentor! Anyone with the opportunity and desire should take Christy’s CLE class! Her passion for supporting breastfeeding women is infectious!
