Milk Magic Educator Program
Are you Passionate about Lactation Education?
The Milk Magic Educator Program was developed to mobilize breastfeeding advocates and enthusiasts through instant access to the tools needed to provide comprehensive and culturally appropriate breastfeeding education and support in your own community. The program was motivated by the recognition of the many systemic barriers to lactation education and support in the Black and Indigenous communities.
Our ultimate goal at Nurturely is to reduce systemic disparities in human milk access by expanding the availability of culturally-matched, community-powered lactation education and support.
The Curriculum
Inclusive, Accessible, Preventative
Content was developed collaboratively by parents, doulas, lactation consultants, researchers, nurses, physicians, and designers with the goal of making content accessible to all. The focus is on common nursing challenges to emphasize realistic preparation. Language and images aim to provide an inclusive, representative space.
All-in-One Toolbox
Membership in the Milk Magic Educator program includes an all-in-one curriculum with digital presentation slides, parent handouts, and all the background research you need to feel confident in your teaching.
The Milk Magic Difference
What the Educators are Saying
I love how inclusive it is and I feel like it covers very important topics. The slides have representation from different cultures. The information is easy to follow and break into small sessions.
I like that it is the first program that focuses on BIPOC feeding, and the history behind certain groups and why those aspects may push people to choose formula.
The best part of the Milk Magic program, in my opinion is the evidence based information that is holistic and parent focused.
I think the best part of the program is that it is building a community, I have met educators who want to do the same kind of work as me, and grown closer to people I already knew, but now we have another thing in common
I love the materials!
I love how beautiful and impactful the imaging is. I also like that the information is current and evidence based. And the acknowledgment of racial disparities in healthcare and breastfeeding is huge.
