The latch looks deep, but something is still off, and you don't know why.

The parent’s still in pain. The baby’s working hard. Feeding isn’t going well — and you can’t quite tell why. This workshop helps you go beyond how the latch looks and understand what it’s telling you about function
 

 

Sometimes the answer is already in front of you.  You just need a clearer way to see it.

The latch looks deep, but something is still off, and you don't know why.

The parent’s still in pain. The baby’s working hard. Feeding isn’t going well — and you can’t quite tell why. This workshop helps you go beyond how the latch looks and understand what it’s telling you about function.

 

Sometimes the answer is already in front of you —
you just need a new way to see it.

What you'll learn inside:

  • Spot when a “deep latch” isn’t actually functional
  • Identify positional red flags that shift the latch toward dysfunction even when it feels fine.
  • Use the latch to quickly and easily identify oral function challenges
  • Translate latching assessments into clear and specific clinical language
  • Communicate latching concerns without overwhelming the parent

Who This Webinar Is For:

  • Private practice and clinic-based lactation professionals who feel stuck constantly running over their scheduled visit time..
  • IBCLCs and lactation professionals who want to learn how to have a repeatable, structured consult flow that they can lengthen or shorten as needed, without sacrificing care.
  • Providers with high-volume or time-limited schedules who need a reliable framework to keep consults moving and the clinic day on track.

Who This Workshop Is For:

  • Lactation professionals who want to strengthen their clinical language around latch function, compensations, and oral challenges
  • Providers who are ready to move beyond visual assessments and start using the latch as a functional diagnostic tool
  • Anyone who’s ever walked away from a consult thinking, “The latch looked fine… but something still felt off”

"I can't recommend her classes enough!"

 

I Avery's classes are fantastic. She approaches latching, consults, oral reflexes, ect. differently from many other classes I've taken. She is so knowledgeable and relatable. I can't recommend her classes enough! Stephanie Bower, IBCLC.
