Our Top Breastfeeding Resources
Babies in Bloom is a birth center, a boutique, a facility that hosts events and classes for parents and children. We are also a breastfeeding center and take pride in providing the best care to new moms experiencing the struggles of breastfeeding. Our International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLC) are top notch. Our Lactation Lounge provides continuous support for moms and families as they continue to nourish their babies. Whether you are breastfeeding, supplementing, bottle feeding, exclusively pumping, or a combination of possibilities, the services we offer are all about support. We provide moms with the information they need to choose what’s best for them, their children, their family, and their unique circumstances.
This week, August 1 through 7 is World Breastfeeding Week. The World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action (WABA) coordinates and organizes this week to raise awareness of the links between breastfeeding and the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals. These 17 goals are aimed at ending poverty, protecting the planet and ensuring prosperity. The fact that our world leaders are finally recognizing that breastfeeding is a key resource to bettering the world is pretty remarkable and worth celebrating.
To celebrate, we are sharing our favorite resources about breastfeeding. Check out our Infographic to learn about where you can turn for breastfeeding support.We are always here to help direct you where you need to be.
