Foster human connection and break isolation.
We offer new parents support in their parental role, and help parents avoid isolation during the pre- and postnatal periods, ensuring that their breastfeeding experience is highly positive. Furthermore, we strive to protect breastfeeding in our society by respecting the right to breastfeed and the International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes.
Moms for Milk is a team of well trained and experienced IBCLC lactation consultants, perinatal workers (doulas) and volunteers.
Our interventions are based on versatility and active listening. We respect the values, opinions and beliefs of each parent who chooses to breastfeed, and this respect is at the core of each of our interactions.
