What people are saying about your local La Leche League group:

"You are so positive, encouraging and knowledgeable. There are a lot of myths out there that can bewilder a first time mum. It can be hard at times and LLL helped me through that. "

 

"I love your meetings because they are so supportive, welcoming and friendly."

 

"LLL meetings don't involve telling mums how they should be raising their babies. Mums can honestly say how everything has been going and how situations have been handled without worrying about being judged."
