Frequently asked questions

Is it free?

Yes! Our infant feeding support groups are ALWAYS free.

Can I bring my baby?

Yes! You can bring your baby, older children, supporter, friend or partner. Just make sure you book a ticket for every over 5.

How are the peer supporters trained?

Our fully trained infant feeding peer supporters are trained by an IBCLC for 12 weeks. They learn about breastfeeding, bottle feeding and weaning as well as mental health and counselling skills. They regularly attend update training and supervision. They are also lovely, friendly parents like you!

Can I come if I don't breastfeed?

Yes! This is an infant feeding support group so we support any person feeding a baby in any way. This might be breastfeeding, combination feeding, formula feeding, expressed feeding or weaning and introducing solids. We are here for you every step of the way!

Can I come if I don't need feeding support?

Yes! We'll always prioritise having space for those in need of support, but there is plenty of space! Many of our parents and carers come for a chat, a cuppa and general perinatal support too. It's so important to have a strong support system around you and we are part of that. You are not alone ?

Is there a private space?

There is an additional separate room you can use if you would prefer privacy when feeding, or to have a cry/pray/care for yourself or an older child....anything you might need.
