All Things Breastfeeding Episode 91: 15 Years of BFCAA!
Manage episode 461278800 series 2416614
The Breastfeeding Center of Ann Arbor (BFCAA) has been operating for more than 15 years!! To celebrate this milestone Jessica and special guest Barb, the original co-host of the podcast, interviewed Barbara on the journey of starting, building, and growing the Center.
From Barbara: “I opened the center in 2008 as a place for all of families’ nursing needs. We had weekly support groups, consults, classes for families, a human milk depot, and some retail. In 2012 I started offering more professional lactation trainings under BFCAA. I was able
to combine my two greatest professional loves, education and lactation. I was lucky enough to be joined later on by Jessica Beemsterboer who has a Master’s degree in adult education. The two of us were having such fun! Jessica started as my intern, quickly began teaching with me, and became an IBCLC herself.”
The pandemic years changed a lot, but we were able to keep the business running, we moved to a new space during that time, Barbara expanded the professional trainings into a separate business, LactaLearning.com, and we added another IBCLC, Veronica Rapin to the team after she completed her internship with us.
Now, both organizations are thriving. With Jessica and Veronica handling operations of running the Breastfeeding Center of Ann Arbor, Barbara is able to focus more of her time on LactaLearning to train lactation supporters, with all three of us continuing to see clients, and planning to continue to grow and support more families.
