Support:

Provision of social and professional support for breastfeeding entails accurate and timely information, education and encouragement, enabling mothers to have the breastfeeding experience she and her child needs. Humane care during childbirth, advice, reassurance, affirmation, hands-on assistance, and practical tips will all boost the confidence of parents to nurture their children.

•Free Online Classes
•Childbirth and Parenting Class Packages

Protection:

Protecting breastfeeding calls for all complementary foods to be marketed in ways that do not undermine exclusive and sustained breastfeeding beyond two years.  Our government being a signatory to the international agreement has its responsibilities in implementing the International Code and the Philippine laws that protect breastfeeding.
