Why Breastfeed?

Breastfeeding is good for your baby’s health. In-depth studies show many long-term advantages for both breastfed babies and their mothers.

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends exclusive breastfeeding for approximately 6 months followed by continued breastfeeding with complementary foods for 2 years and beyond as mutually desired.

The decision to breastfeed, however, is a personal decision every parent must make for themselves and their infant. The most important thing is to feed your baby, and we are here to support and guide parents who breastfeed, formula feed, or choose any of the combinations on this continuum. We will walk you through the feeding and weaning process and follow your baby’s progress with the expert care that years of training and experience provide.
