If you have a question about breastfeeding or need support at any stage of your journey, you can book a face-to-face peer support session.

Our peer supporters are National Childbirth Trust and Medway Community Healthcare trained so you can feel confident in the support you receive. They are friendly, non-judgemental and ready to listen. Peer support gives you the chance to:

  • speak to someone face-to-face in confidence
  • have your positioning and attachment checked
  • talk about any feeding issues or challenges you may be facing

If your baby has had a tongue-tie division, you will be offered a peer support session.
