Make Mine Breast Feeding Friendly

Child care providers are one of the most important resources for working and nursing mothers. Parents see and talk to their children’s care givers every day. Their encouragement and support is vital!

To learn more about how child care providers can support and encourage breastfeeding families, and to obtain or renew a Breast Feeding Friendly (BFF) designation, please access the link to the New York State Department of Health “Make Mine Breast Feeding Friendly” Training.
