Breastfeeding support at Springfield Children’s Centre
We offer a number of ways to support expectant and breastfeeding parents who may need support or just want to talk about breastfeeding.
Parents can receive support face-to-face or through our duty telephone service (during office hours).
We are here to support you with information, help you to build your confidence and to get breastfeeding off to a good start. We understand that getting the right support at the right time is very important when you are breastfeeding.
Information on the benefits of breastfeeding are detailed on the NHS website.
