La Leche League of Greater Columbus, Ohio

All breastfeeding mothers and mothers-to-be interested in breastfeeding are welcome to come to our meetings or call one of our Leaders for breastfeeding help or information. Babies are always welcome at our meetings.

Breastfeeding is natural, but that doesn't mean women can do it by instinct alone. Like childbirth, breastfeeding is easier with help. Problems of lactation can usually be avoided with preparation and information.

Leaders

La Leche League Leaders are experienced mothers who have breastfed their own babies and who have been trained and accredited by La Leche League International to help mothers and mothers-to-be with all aspects of breastfeeding. They are available by phone between meetings for breastfeeding questions or concerns.
