We will cover the breastfeeding basics and more, so you can feed your baby with peace and confidence. We address the biomechanics of lactation (what’s going on in there, anyway?), hunger cues, latch, common issues, pumping, and how to supplement with formula, donor milk, or stored milk if needed.

We also talk through some of the complicated cultural understanding (and misunderstanding) around breastfeeding and pumping. 

This content is great for first-time moms, but it’s just as useful for moms going through childbirth again. Remember--just like children, no two feeding journeys are alike.

Meet the educators

Courtney M. Miller, RN, BSN, IBCLC, Founder of The Better Boob Lactation Courtney earned her Bachelors of Science in Nursing from the University of Kentucky in Lexington Kentucky in 2015. She worked as a registered nurse in the adult ICU for 2.5 years before making the switch to Mother-Baby and Labor and Delivery where she spent another 2 years.  Her passion for breastfeeding began after giving birth to her son in March 2019, and quickly realizing there wasn’t enough readily-available breastfeeding education and support. She became an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant in 2020 and worked as a LC on a postpartum unit in a hospital. Courtney then founded The Better Boob Lactation. Now she says she has found her calling of helping moms and their families along their breastfeeding journey! Courtney regularly uses her personal breastfeeding experience, along with evidence-based research, to help educate and support the families she works alongside. Courtney enjoys hiking and traveling with her husband, two boys and dog. She enjoys doing Barre workouts and you can always find her at Target with a Starbucks in hand!

Course format

How is the class presented?

We use a combination of on-demand video, audio, and print files.

This course fully self-paced allowing you to learn on your own schedule. It's divided into chapters enabling you to pause and return as needed.

Why on-demand?

Because adult's brains are similar to a muscle, they need alternating periods of rest and recovery to synthesize new ideas and concepts. When learners receive information in short chunks, rest, reflect, then return is how adults learn best.
