About this Event
Join LaShanda Dandrich, IBCLC to discuss/ answer all your questions about supporting your clients with their infant feeding journeys!
Kota is interested in doing something about the crisis in maternal mortality among, especially, Black and Brown people. Doulas are an important part of the solution, and so we are planning to support doulas in whatever way you all think is needed. We are starting 2025 with this networking/discussion event focused on the topic of infant feeding at Kota. Join LaShanda Dandrich, IBCLC to discuss/answer all your questions about supporting your clients with their infant feeding journeys! LaShanda Dandrich is an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and the co-founder of Lactation Learning Collective. She is the Programs Director in Unconditional Love Doula Organization, and has been working with the lactation profession for over a decade in NYC with diverse families throughout the community.
We'll have some drinks and snacks; share experiences, good and bad; and make new friends. Midwifes are welcome to join us. If you are only just thinking about training to become a doula, you are welcome as well.
Feel free to bring your children, but please be aware you are responsible for them while in the house (we are working on child care!)
