Breastfeeding wellness workshop

written by BabyYumYum

Many women become a parent for the first time and feel that they know next to nothing about breastfeeding! Perhaps some women even feel that breastfeeding should just happen naturally on its own and if it doesn’t then something must be wrong with them… this is simply not true—all moms need some help at one time or another on their feeding journey. And when it comes to breastfeeding, Babyyumyum.co.za has got all the support you need.

BabyYumYum.co.za will be holding another popular Wellness Workshop on 22 July 2023. This time new and seasoned moms can learn everything they need to know all about breastfeeding including advice and professional guidance, either online or at an “in person” event complete with a breastfeeding area and delicious snacks.

“Women need not feel alone in their breastfeeding experience and with any difficulties and that is why we do these workshops,” explains Priscilla Macoba, Brand Activation Specialist at www.babyyumyum.co.za, South Africa’s #1 parenting portal.

Don’t miss out on this exciting opportunity to learn everything essential about breastfeeding from medical experts and mothers who have gone through similar breastfeeding challenges.

Plus, the workshop will offer compassionate encouragement and excellent support — no new mom should feel isolated when learning how to breastfeed her child. Some of the topics covered in the workshop will include: the benefits of breastfeeding; producing healthy milk and how diet makes a difference (presented by Dr Kath Megaw from Nutripaeds), what to do when it doesn’t go according to plan—and the societal pressures surrounding breastfeeding, techniques for latching properly; avoiding common breastfeeding mistakes, , controlling milk production, breastfeeding and allergies, when to start weaning your child, breastfeeding rights in the workplace and other practical solutions.

“The workshop is a great chance to establish a supportive network for your breastfeeding and parenting journey in a non- judgemental environment– it will add valuable and brilliant insight for any mother,” says Priscilla.

It’s easy to get the knowledge and support you need. Simply buy a ticket on Quicket and login on the day or come and meet us in person. See you there!

Introducing The Ackermans Parent & Child Sleep Workshop in association with Good Night and Kath Megaw, brought to you by BabyYumYum

by BabyYumYum January 8, 2023
written by BabyYumYum

BabyYumYum’s latest virtual wellness workshop offers solution to parents with babies and children who struggle to sleep through the night

What do parents really want? It’s a question that has been asked for years. And BabyYumYum.co.za – the fastest-growing free parenting portal in South Africa – knows the answer: parents want a trustworthy source of information to help them feel empowered on their parenting journey. And the latest virtual wellness workshop in BabyYumYum.co.za‘s series will deliver exactly that.

In October 2022, BabyYumYum.co.za partnered with acclaimed paediatric nutritionist and founder of Nutripaeds, Kath Megaw, to host the first in a series of wellness workshops, which focused on helping parents tackle problems around their children’s fussy or picky eating.

Due to the success of this workshop, BabyYumYum.co.za will be hosting a second wellness workshop on 4 March 2023, this time in collaboration with Good Night, a sleep consultancy that specialises in helping parents with babies and children who struggle to sleep through the night.

Numerous studies have proven that children who get an adequate amount of sleep not only exhibit improved mood and behaviour, but it also improved their attention, memory and ability to learn.

And sleep is just as important for parents, with one study estimating that new parents only get about 5,5 hours of sleep a night, adding up to a shocking 900 hours of lost sleep in the first year alone.

Managing director of Good Night, Jolandi Becker, says, “As a parent, you only need to have one bad night to understand why sleep is so important – we’re irritable, have reduced concentration and less energy, which all make parenting much more difficult.”

Which is why the team at Good Night, specialise in giving each family a customised sleep plan that will work for them, ensuring the new sleep routines and practices are something the parents feel comfortable implementing and, crucially, they offer parental support throughout the process.

But The Ackermans Parent & Child Sleep Workshop in association with Good Night and Kath Megaw, brought to you by BabyYumYum.co.za, will address more than just problems related to night time sleep, the day will also feature expert speakers addressing topics like the science behind sleep, how a child’s physical and emotional development affects sleep, the role of nutrition and environment, and the impact routines have on a child’s ability to sleep through the night.   

If you want your baby, toddler or child to sleep better, this one-day virtual workshop will equip you with all the information you need to make that happen in a healthy, responsible way.  
Tickets cost R250 – click HERE to buy.

BabyYumYum knows what parents want –  they deliver through a series of innovative virtual Wellness Workshops!

What do parents really want? It’s a question that has been asked for years. And BabyYumYum – the fastest-growing free parenting portal in South Africa – knows the answer: parents want a trustworthy source of information to help them feel empowered on their parenting journey. And BabyYumYum’s new series of one-day virtual Wellness Workshops deliver exactly that.

In October, BabyYumYum partnered with acclaimed paediatric nutritionist and founder of Nutripaeds, Kath Megaw, to host the first in the wellness workshop series, which focused on helping parents tackle problems around their children’s fussy or picky eating.

Over the course of a day, 14 expert and specialist speakers took to the virtual stage to share life-changing professional and practical advice. The list of speakers included:

Kath Megaw RD(SA), Clinical Dietitian and Founder of Nutripaeds.

Sammy Hammond, SLT and SOS Feeding Therapist.

Cordialis Msora-Kasago, Registered Dietitian Nutritionist.

Kim Hoffman, Registered Dietician.

Mbali Mapholi, Registered Dietitians.

Dr Aadil Ahmed Khan, Medical Doctor and Clicks Wellness Expert.

Dr Jenny Rose, Clinical Psychologist and Parent-child Expert.

Lulu Becker, Pelvic Health Physio.

Dr Thulja Trikamjee, Paediatrician and Certified Allergist.

Sarah Oberholzer, Speech-language & Hearing Therapist.

Meg Faure, Occupational Therapist & Founder of Play Sense.

Nicole Hoenselaar, Parenting Expert and The Toddler Guru.

Tracey Venter, Occupational Therapist at The Children’s Therapy Centre.

Sr. Ann Richardson, Author and ‍qualified Nurse Practitioner and Midwife.

The workshop took a holistic approach to the topic, not simply focusing on a child’s picky behaviour, but also went into depth on the psychological aspects behind picky eating, the common causes, how a parent’s relationship with food shapes their child’s experience, allergies and much more – and, crucially, the workshop offered practical problem-solving solutions that parents could implement in their own families.

Growing a community

Despite technical difficulties and inconvenient loadshedding schedules that parents faced on the day , the workshop was an undeniable success and did far more than just educate and empower parents – through the online chat function, the workshop gave parents a chance to share their personal experiences with picky eating and ask for advice and support from like-minded caregivers who truly understand what they’re going through. The workshop also had various brand partners on board who were also able to contribute positively to the picky eating struggle; the main workshop partner being PediaSure.

The price for online access to this plethora of experts and post-event videos was substantially less than you’d pay for a consultation with any of the workshop’s expert speakers and BabyYumYum will always offer this valuable opportunity to parents.

BabyYumYum isn’t done helping parents yet – watch out for details on the next Wellness Workshop in the series, focusing on baby, toddler and child sleep, scheduled for February 2023.
