Breastfeeding 1-2-3

Vote to Support Micky of Mocha Milk

by Angela White, J.D., breastfeeding counselor on September 8th, 2008

My IdeaMicky of the breastfeeding blog Mocha Milk started a thriving business called 9 Months and Beyond, LLC. It offers childbirth and breastfeeding support. She wants to grow the business even more, and has entered the Ideablob $10,000 contest. Here’s what her entry says:

9 Months & Beyond, LLC offers a full doula services, lactation support and parenting education. We combine the best resources of a doula agency and pregnancy/ parenting boutique with a respectful, supportive community. From conception through the first years of parenting, we help birthing families through a range of counseling and educational services and products designed for their special circumstances.
Specialties include:
birth/labor doula services
childbirth education
birth tub rental
breast-pump rental
lactation education and consultation
parenting education
support groups
products that promote attachment and connected parenting (such as slings, books, etc)

What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?

From being an home-based, one woman show to developing a small service inside of a pediatric office, we are tired but excited by our progress. The extra money would help us make that next step in growth including expanding our hours of service and increasing our physical facilities space. We could then offer group classes for mothers/parents and at a variety of times to better serve our clients’ complex schedules. Further, with a bit of success under our belt, we are beginning to entertain investor options. Bringing more money to the table allows us to maintain control and the vision for our service.

If you agree it’s a fantastic idea and you want to support Micky and her business, vote here!
