A one-hour webinar to discuss how childcare programs can support breastfeeding. Viewers will learn best practices and policies around supporting breastfeeding mothers and their infants. Childcare programs play a unique role in breastfeeding by welcoming breastfeeding mothers and making sure staff members are trained to handle breast milk and follow mothers' feeding plans.
