Are you interested in
Breastfeeding? Do you need help or support with breastfeeding? La Leche
League of Southern Clermont County can be
of help to you and your family.
La Leche League
Leaders are experienced mothers who are accredited by La Leche League
International to help mothers and mothers-to-be with all aspects of
breastfeeding. Leaders have access to the most up to date information,
research and materials.
We have monthly
support meetings that are a great way to meet other breastfeeding mothers
and receive in person help, encouragement and support.
Meetings are casual,
open and welcoming. We have a small activity to initiate conversation and
mostly we are there to answer your questions. Babies are always welcome and
men are usually welcome depending on attending mothers' comfort; some women
are very uncomfortable breastfeeding in front of men and may hold back on
questions or personal experiences.
Meetings and
services are free and the Leaders are volunteers. La Leche League is
non-profit so donations are heavily depended on. Please consider donating
to La Leche League if you have found our services helpful or you wish to
support our efforts.
