LA LECHE LEAGUE MEETINGS

Attending La Leche League meetings can help you learn about breastfeeding from other nursing mothers. Mothers share not only their questions and concerns but also benefits and joys of breastfeeding. Being in touch with La Leche League can give you the network of support you need. Babies are always welcome. Please ring to confirm dates [in case illness or emergency means we have to postpone ] and get directions for how to get to there

Meetings are held in the Stocksfield Room, at the Rufus Centre, Steppingley Rd Flitwick MK45 1AH from 10.00 until 12.30. This is a public room so we do have to be out on time, but don’t worry if you are late, a warm welcome will await you. Meetings will also be held between these dates in Luton and Lidlington ; the focus will be on life with toddlers, please ring for details.
