Breastfeeding Support Services

Breastfeeding allows you and your baby to emotionally bond in a special way. It also delivers a wide range of health benefits. The American Academy of Pediatrics and the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology both recommend exclusively breastfeeding for the first six months of a baby’s life. In addition, the AAP recommends continuing breastfeeding in combination with solid food through 1 year of age and beyond.
