Breastfeeding Support Is Healthcare

Image
World Health Day

On World Health Day, we often think about hospitals and clinical care. But there is another layer of support that matters just as much, and it happens in homes, in communities, and in everyday moments between parents and babies. 

Breastfeeding support is healthcare. 

When families have access to timely, evidence-based support, they get help sooner. Moms have their questions answered. Common challenges are worked through before they become overwhelming. This can reduce repeat visits and ease pressure on an already stretched healthcare system.

La Leche League Canada (LLLC) acknowledges that we live, work, and support families on the appropriated, unceded, and treaty lands of Indigenous Peoples across Turtle Island, also known as Canada. We recognize the First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples as the original caretakers of these lands and honour their deep knowledge, traditions, and parenting practices that have nurtured generations. We also acknowledge the ongoing impacts of colonization, systemic inequities, and barriers Indigenous families face in accessing culturally safe perinatal and breastfeeding support.  

La Leche League Canada (LLLC) acknowledges that not all people use the words 'mother' and ‘breastfeeding’ to describe their own experiences. LLLC uses the words 'mother', 'breastfeeding', 'nursing' and 'nursing parent' in our materials. LLLC Leaders will use the words individuals prefer in personal communication.
