Birthingway in PDX is looking for breastfeeding models on May 3rd, particularly young babes (those are the mostly likely to nurse among distractions and talking anyway) and they pay a small stipend. Here is the email that I got and was asked to pass on to my contacts. If you're gonna be in PDX anyway, I'll bet you'll meet some really cool folks.
Happy nursing!
Love, Laura
Hi there everyone!
Every year we teach a Breastfeeding Skills class to compliment our Breastfeeding I,II and III classes.This year we are looking for breastfeeding mamas who might be interested in helping students demonstrate their consultation skills (supervised by an IBCLC).
Mamas will be paid a small stipend for their time and snacks/tea will be provided.
Tuesday May 3rd at 6:30pm. Mamas with babes between the ages of 4-8 weeks of age preferable but we love to see all stages of the breastfeeding relationship!
If you could kindly pass the word to your friends, co-workers, clients,and/or community that would be most appreciated!
You can contact me at : Stacey@Birthingway.edu for more information

How cool...this sounds like a neat group.
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for the comment on priorities. I think you're right that many of them overlap. My coworker Ruth told me, too, that sometimes a job in the healthy profession can maybe be spiritual at times, which I think is so true. Anyway, thanks for making me think more about it. Hugs to you!
