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.
