Welcome to our online course on Tongue Ties and Breastfeeding! As a new parent, you want to provide the best care for your baby, and breastfeeding is one of the most natural and nurturing ways to do so. However, tongue ties can cause significant challenges for both mother and baby during breastfeeding.

This introductory course will equip you with the knowledge and tools to identify signs and symptoms of tongue ties, determining next steps for diagnosis, as well as the various treatment options available and your ideal treament team.
