Infant feeding

Infant feeding groups provide friendly, practical support for parents at any stage of feeding their baby.

Sessions are led by trained infant feeding staff who can offer advice on:

  • breastfeeding
  • responsive bottle feeding
  • positioning and attachment
  • preparing for weaning

You can attend whether you need help with a specific issue or simply want reassurance and confidence. You do not need to be experiencing difficulties to attend.

The groups are also a chance to meet other parents, share experiences and feel supported.

Some sessions include Baby Buddies.
