LACTATION CONSULTING

Breastfeeding is all about providing the baby with food, warmth, security, protection and safety. Breast milk contains everything an infant needs. Our lactation consultants prepare expectant parents for this wonderful experience with preparatory breastfeeding courses. Our consultants are available to answer any questions before and after the birth and also advise mothers who choose not to breastfeed.

Our breastfeeding and antenatal classes as well as our lactation consultants are available throughout your pregnancy to answer questions and provide information on breastfeeding. Immediately after the birth, you will be supported by a qualified midwife who will help you start breastfeeding right away.

We will show you how to breastfeed successfully, even if you are separated from your child for a while. If you are not breastfeeding, we will show you how to feed your new-born baby. You can be with your baby 24 hours a day. This closeness promotes the mother-child bond and milk production. Breastfeeding is adapted to the baby's rhythm. We help you integrate this into your everyday life.

Before your journey home, we will arrange a comprehensive consultation with you. We will provide you with contact details for lactation consultants, breastfeeding groups, freelance midwives and maternity consultants. If you have any questions or concerns, you can contact us at any time.
