Most mothers want to breastfeed but stop early due to a lack of ongoing support. Let us provide you support and help you reach your breastfeeding goal.

Nursing Newborn

August is
National Breastfeeding Month

Breastfeeding is more than nourishment. It's a powerful first connection between mother and baby. This month, we celebrate the strength, dedication, and love behind every breastfeeding journey. Whether you're preparing, learning, or supporting others, join us in raising awareness, sharing knowledge, and honoring the choice to breastfeed.

"Breastfeeding was the most challenging yet rewarding journey as a mother. I struggled in the beginning however after countless attempts and seeking out help from the Health Department I was able to exclusively breastfeed my son while pumping extra for 12 months. I loved every minute."

- Allison
