Breastfeeding Welcome Scheme

Breastfeeding Welcome Scheme A service from NCT making it easier for women to breastfeed their babies when they are out and about.

Breastfeeding is the most important thing a mother can do to improve the lifelong health of her child. The Breastfeeding Welcome Scheme aims to give all mothers this chance. The Breastfeeding Welcome Scheme supports mothers to exercise their right to feed their child when they need to be fed. We also provide the tools and support to businesses and venues to make this happen.

Throughout , we’ll be sharing some stories of women's experiences of feeding their babies.

After giving birth to her son, Samm really struggled to breastfeed.

"The impact it had on my mental state was borderline catastrophic, I also had a retained placenta so it meant that complete breastfeeding just wasn't an option at the start."

Samm came along to one of our Baby Cafés – a free drop-in offering support with feeding babies, run by an NCT Breastfeeding Counsellor.

She told us: “The support of the Baby Café meant I can combi feed, which I am so proud of.

“I’ve made some amazing friends who have supported me on my sometimes ‘rocky’ journey and it’s great to know you’re not alone.”

Do you need support with feeding your baby? Search our website to see if there's a Baby Café in your area: https://www.nct.org.uk/local-activities-meet-ups

Our Infant Feeding Line is a free telephone line open to all parents and carers who have a question or worry about feeding their baby. It is open every day from 8am to midnight. Just call 0300 330 0700 (option 1).

We also have lots of information on our website however you are feeding your baby. https://www.nct.org.uk/baby-toddler/feeding
