Breast Feeding Education and Support

Moms who decide to breast feed their babies often have many questions on how to do this successfully. 

The Branch-Hillsdale-St. Joseph Community Health Agency offers:

• Free, individual breastfeeding consultations by a registered nurse who is specially trained as a lactation educator. The nurse can answer questions about breastfeeding, offer suggestions on breastfeeding techniques and address problems that might arise

• Free breast pumps.

• Referrals to breastfeeding support groups in the local community.

For further information on this program, please contact the local health agency office and ask to speak to the lactation educator.
