Breastfeeding moms need good information and encouragement. In this day and age, breastfeeding can be a lonely experience, or it can become the most profound thing you'll ever do. You decide! Studies have shown that the satisfaction of many mothers is enhanced by the support they receive at La Leche League meetings. It's a casual place where you and your baby are welcome. Practical help and up-to-date information are shared, and friendships with other mothers can be formed. If you are a woman considering breastfeeding or already breastfeeding, La Leche League welcomes you, your nursing baby and your young children to our monthly meetings.
