Outreach telephone calls to new mothers by a certified Lactation Consultant to provide support and problem solving during those critical first weeks home with the new baby. If the new mother is experiencing difficulties with breastfeeding which can not be solved over the phone she will be assisted in finding a Lactation Professional to consult in person. The Lactation Consultant will make the agreed upon number of outreach calls and the new mothers can make an unlimited number of calls to the consultant.

The focus of this visit is on assisting the new mother to prepare for her return to work and how she can continue her nursing relationship with her infant. The correct use of breastpumps and other equipment will be reviewed as well as safe and sanitary handling and storage of breastmilk, adjusting schedules, and other worksite issues.
