Do you feel the deep calling to learn more about breastfeeding and teach others?

Watch our YouTube Seminar to learn more!
The history of breastfeeding goes back to beginning of time itself. 

There was no such thing as artificial  milk until 1960's and 70's.
Before that we used wet-nurses or other mothers who would care for  their babies. 
Breastfeeding was at an all time low in 1973 with only 26% of mothers choosing breastfeeding over artificial milk. 
​
There has been practically a generation of women who were raised on bottled milk (artificial milk).
Today more people are choosing breastfeeding, and with the lack of information women have been given from their mother's and grandmother's you'll find they need you.
They are searching for your support in  breastfeeding their baby. 
What students are saying about "Mommy Latch"

"A Breath of Fresh air - all women language - breastfeeding, mother, women, motherhood, etc. I am loving it." J.L. 

The education that most women don't have but need in this world can come from you!

Meet our Teacher

Hi! I'm Julie Larsen

My name is Julie Larsen. I'm a wife and mother of four children. I'm a certified doula but that is just the tip of the iceberg. I have a Bachelor's of Science in Family Consumer Sciences & Master's in Library Sciences. After having my first child I learned about doula work and dove in. I have taken hundreds of trainings from Rebozos, Peer Lactation Counselor, Nutrition Expert (Holistic Nutritional Coach), Bereavement, Master Herbalist, Hypnobabies and more and have been a doula since 2011. I am also an author of various books.
With all of these trainings and my faith so important, I discovered that they lacked the importance of God, so in 2014 I founded the Catholic Doula Program. I've expanded an outreach with other programs, teaching fertility, nutrition, and my main programs the Catholic Doula Program Birth and Postpartum Training.
Note: The Mommy Latch program is NOT religious based - but we do leave off chestfeeding - we stick with traditional based terms in our class!
What is Mommy Latch Lacta-Herbalist™ 

The Lacta-Herbalist Course offers a comprehensive exploration of the world of lactation herbs, providing participants with essential knowledge to support breastfeeding mothers. This course delves into the various herbs that can enhance lactation, equipping learners with the skills to identify and utilize these natural resources effectively. By understanding the benefits and applications of lactation herbs, participants will be better prepared to assist mothers in their breastfeeding journeys.
​Take me to the Lacta-Herbalist stand-alone information!
If you choose to co-enroll, we will give you a discount for both!
