Is This Course for You?
This course is for parents who want to walk into feeding with real information, whether it is a first baby or a second after a first journey that was harder than it needed to be.
Expecting Your First Baby
You have prepared for birth. Feeding starts the moment birth ends, and almost nobody prepares for that.
Doing It Differently This Time
Your first feeding experience was hard, or ended sooner than you wanted. This time you want to understand why.
Still Weighing Up Your Options
Breast, bottle, or a mix. You want the honest pros and cons of each, without being pushed towards one.
Partners and Support People
You want to know how to actually help, not hover. There is a whole section on exactly that.
Drowning in Conflicting Advice
Every account says something different. You want one clear, evidence-informed source you can trust.

Savannah Senior
Savannah is an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and paediatric Speech and Language Therapist specialising in feeding and swallowing. She has spent years working with the smallest and most fragile babies in NHS neonatal units, and in the community with families whose feeding did not go to plan.
She is also a mum. Her own son had a tongue tie and a difficult start to breastfeeding, despite all her IBCLC knowledge. She is passionate about supporting families to make the choices that are right for them, and supporting them to reach their feeding goals.
Savannah runs Learn to Feed, a paediatric feeding and lactation consultation practice, and co-founded Little Beginnings Hub to make this kind of support reachable for families who cannot access private care.
Your Written Guide
Because nobody wants to scrub back through a video at 3am with a crying baby.
One written guide, covering the whole course
The course comes with a single downloadable guide that covers everything discussed across all the modules: the nappy charts, the latch checklist, the formula making steps and the milk storage times, all in one place that can be opened one-handed.
It is produced together with Learn to Feed, a paediatric feeding and lactation consultation practice run by Savannah Senior, IBCLC and SLT, so the guidance is the same as families receive in clinic.
What Parents Are Saying
From parents who attended the live version
“An invaluable course for new parents or parents who want a refresher! It offers practical advice on what to expect regarding diaper contents from birth; for example, it was so helpful to know about meconium (the first poop!), we would’ve been shocked if we hadn’t been prepared for it to be black! Further, we learned about bottle feeding, and breastfeeding and got hands-on position practice for feeding and tips to ensure our baby is getting proper nutrition. I left feeling far more confident and prepared for my feeding journey as did my husband.”
Lara
“As a first time father-to-be, this workshop provided me with a crash course on what options we have to feed our new born, what we can expect when trying to breast feeding or bottle feed and how you can best support your partner postpartum. At the end of the workshop, you are instructed to practice different latch positions and how you can help as a partner (more pillows was a top suggestion!). I came out feeling much more confident, knowledgeable and had a more realistic idea of what to expect once our baby was born.”
York
“My husband and I attended this online antenatal course while I was pregnant, and we both found it superb. There was a really good balance of theory and practical skills, and understanding the ‘why’ first made the practical side make so much more sense.
We loved the group work, where we problem-solved strategies together with other couples. I’d really recommend attending with your partner: it’s lovely to learn together, and with pregnancy brain, it helps to have a second person who remembers the content!
The short quiz after each section was a great touch, giving us a moment to check what we’d taken in. The course was pitched at just the right level: easy to understand and digest, not too technical, yet still very comprehensive.
I’d highly recommend it to any expecting parents.”
Lize
“I couldn’t recommend Savannah enough! The breastfeeding course she provided was incredibly informative, helpful and reassuring. She explained everything so clearly and gave me the knowledge and confidence I needed to start my breastfeeding journey feeling much more prepared.
What I appreciated most was that Savannah’s support didn’t stop after the course. Once my baby arrived, she was there to support and guide me through breastfeeding, answering my questions and helping me whenever I needed it. Having that ongoing support made such a difference, especially during those early days when breastfeeding can feel overwhelming.
Savannah is incredibly knowledgeable, kind and supportive, and I’m so grateful for all the help she has given me throughout my breastfeeding journey. Thank you so much, Savannah!”

Questions You Might Have
When in pregnancy should I do this course?
Any time from around 28 weeks is ideal: late enough that it feels relevant, early enough that you are not doing it at 39 weeks with a hospital bag by the door. Access lasts 18 months, so many parents start in pregnancy and come back to specific sections once the baby arrives.
I'm not sure I want to breastfeed. Is this still for me?
Yes. The course covers breastfeeding, expressing, bottle feeding and formula in equal detail, with the honest pros and cons of each, and does not push one option over another. The aim is to give you the full picture so the decision is genuinely yours. The safe formula preparation and paced bottle feeding sections are worth having whichever way you choose to feed.
My first feeding experience was really hard. Will this help?
This is one of the main reasons parents take it. Many first feeding journeys go wrong not because of anything the parent did, but because nobody explained how milk supply works, what a good latch looks like, or when to ask for help. Going in with that knowledge changes things.
Can my partner watch it with me?
Please do. There is a whole section on how partners can genuinely help, during feeds and between them, and feeding tends to go better when the person supporting you understands what they are looking at.
Is there anything to download and keep?
Yes. The course comes with one written guide covering everything discussed across all the modules, produced together with Learn to Feed. It holds the nappy charts, latch checklist, formula making steps and milk storage times in one place that can be opened one-handed at 3am.
What's the bonus module about?
It covers exercise and feeding, taught by Nathalie, an NHS midwife and pre and postnatal coach known as @_themovementmidwife. She covers what to think about in pregnancy, how to time exercise around feeds, and what movement really does to your milk, your baby and you.
Do I have to watch it all in one go?
Not at all. It is fully self-paced and broken into short lessons, so you can do a module in a sitting or dip into one section at a time. Your progress saves as you go.
How long do I have access?
Eighteen months from the day you buy it, so it carries you through the end of pregnancy and well into the first year, when you are most likely to want to re-watch things.
Does this replace one-to-one support?
No, and it is not meant to. The course gives you the knowledge and the confidence to spot when something needs hands-on help, and what to ask for when you seek it. If you are already facing a specific difficulty, one-to-one support with an IBCLC or your infant feeding team is still the right next step, and the course explains how to find it.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. A 14-day refund policy applies if fewer than 30% of the course materials have been accessed.
Ready to Feel Prepared Before Your Baby Arrives?
Five modules, a bonus module on exercise and feeding, and a written guide to keep, so you meet your baby already knowing how feeding works.
