Breastfeeding

If you are:

• Pregnant and interested in breastfeeding
• Already breastfeeding and want to meet other moms
• Need answers to your breastfeeding questions

Then, get breastfeeding help at one of the Boston Baby Cafés.

As a new mom, breastfeeding can be hard. The Boston Baby Cafés are FREE drop-in sessions offering breastfeeding support from trained lactation professionals and information for new and soon-to-be mothers in the community. Join us in a relaxed, informal, and safe group environment. Boston Baby Cafés are presented in partnership with the Vital Village Breastfeeding Coalition.

Light snacks will be served. No appointment or registration needed. Partners and young siblings are welcome!
