Chest/breastfeeding is a relationship between the caregiver and baby. This can be full of love and joy as well as challenges. We believe you shouldn’t have to go through those challenges alone. We discuss your feedings goals at the start of working together and focus on how we can meet those goals with a priority on both the mental and physical health and wellbeing of the caregiver and baby.
