About this event

Health • Other

Come for a chat, connection, a moan, or a celebration. We’re here for you - and living it with you!

Perfect if you can't make a weekday group, or need support from someone to come along and they are only around on a weekend.

Whether you want to meet other people feeding beyond babyhood, have specific questions about feeding an older baby/child, or want to share how you are feeling - you are welcome.

Supporters/partners, babies and children are welcome to come along with you.

Please do book tickets online before attending where possible.

About Huntingtree Park Hub:

The park offers an activity centre, outdoor gym, children's play area, bowling green, tennis court, football pitch and free off-road parking.

There is a small car park but most parking is based on the perimeter roads at the owners own risk. The 417 and 244 buses run up to the park from Halesowen Bus Station at 20 minute intervals.

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 ?
