Lactation Support Services
Breastfeeding is the best way to get your new baby off to a healthy start. Our lactation consultants are here to offer guidance, advice and the tools to help you when you need it.
Why Choose Sutter?
Nursing your newborn has tremendous benefits for both you and your baby. We’re proud that 6 of our birth centers have earned the Baby-Friendly Hospital designation. Our robust lactation services and dedicated consultants are why 90% of new parents go home breastfeeding their babies.
We know that breastfeeding comes with challenges and can be stressful, especially in the beginning. After your baby is born, our nurses and nurse-midwives are on hand to provide breastfeeding education and address common problems and concerns. Once you go home, our lactation team specialists can help find and address issues and provide support through in-person and online consultations, phone advice, virtual support groups and breast pump rentals.
