Breastfeeding Drop-in Clinic
 
Cost: By donation. All proceeds benefit our free and sliding scale programming.
 
Visit our calendar for dates and times. Pre-registration required at 604-535-1175.
Office Hours Tuesday through Thursday from 10am to 2pm

In this clinic you can ask questions about breastfeeding and new baby care, as well as have a consultant observe you feeding your baby. However, it is not as in depth as a one-on-one consultation. You will be able to measure your baby’s intake using our scale and discuss the challenges you are having breastfeeding as well. Many mothers will not need additional care, but if further treatment is recommended, you will be referred to one of our Lactation Consultants for a private session.

Please leave strollers and infant car seats in your car, as there is limited space.

Cancellation policy: If you are unable to attend the clinic, please contact us to ensure that another family from our wait list can take your place.
 
Illness Policy: Please do not come to class if you or your baby have a fever, cough, runny nose, sore throat, are vomiting or have diarrhea, or if you feel sick. If you have the flu, do not return to class until you or your baby have been fever free for 48 hours (in the absence of any fever reducing medications like Ibuprofen or Tylenol).
