Decoding the Suck: Gentle Support for Babies with Sucking Difficulties

For birth workers and infant feeding professionals who want to confidently assess and support babies struggling to suck — even when the latch looks fine.

Inside this course, you’ll learn how to:

•  Spot subtle but significant sucking difficulties early

• Understand when it’s not “just a latch issue” — and what else might be going on

• Gently assess oral function, feeding reflexes, tone, and coordination

• Use age-appropriate oral exercises and feeding strategies that actually help

• Move beyond “wait and see” or “just release the tie” approaches with confidence

This isn’t a one-size-fits-all method. It’s the deeper knowledge you’ve been looking for to support families in that tricky grey zone — with clinical tools grounded in evidence, nuance, and compassion.
