of everything we do
Going back to work or study may be the first time you have been separated from your baby for long periods. Continuing to breastfeed helps to keep the close relationship you’ve built up, providing your baby with extra comfort and security for as long as you both want. You don’t need to stop breastfeeding just because you’re returning to work or study. Many women find ways to continue breastfeeding their baby. Employers and course providers have certain obligations towards breastfeeding women to support your return to work or study.
Please see this leaflet for more information.
Whether you’re breastfeeding, formula feeding or combination feeding, our Infant Feeding Team offers friendly, evidence-based advice to help you and your baby get off to the best start.
If you’re a parent, carer or professional looking to refer a family for extra support, our Health Visiting and Family Nurse teams are here to help.
Supporting families across Solihull with trusted health advice and care — from birth through to young adulthood.
