Thank you for reaching out about our Birth & Lactation Guardianship offerings at Chichihualtia and taking the next step towards manifesting the birth and breast/chestfeeding experience that you deserve. 

​

We help ensure that you have the information you need to make informed decisions regarding your birth and help with relaxation, massage, positioning and other techniques for your comfort during labor. We help you get breast/chestfeeding off to a good start by assisting with latch support, hand expression, positioning, and your overall empowerment as a new parent.
