Breast Friend Support Group
This monthly support group is centered for pregnant and breastfeeding mothers. We have a created a fun, non-judgmental, safe space to discuss parenting, birth, and of course breastfeeding. Our skilled group facilitators are extremely knowledgeable and have experience with a variety of topics and relationship dynamics. Our goal is to build community and sisterhood and offer a real life example of what breastfeeding looks like. You will truly leave with “breast friends.”
Breast Friends Fit
At this moment Best Friends Fit has been discontinued, we aim to continue in the near future.
