Breastfeeding can be a beautiful experience, but it's not always easy — and that's okay. Whether you're just getting started or working through a few challenges, our friendly Breastfeeding Support Service is here to help Casey families.
Sessions are free, with no bookings or referrals required. Please note that this drop-in service does not run on public holidays.
If you prefer a one-on-one chat, you can call us on 9705 5590 to book a private appointment with one of our lactation consultants.
What to bring
When attending a group or one-on-one session, please bring:
- your child's infant health record
- any breastfeeding aids, for example, nipple shield, breast pumps
- burping cloth and wrap
- nappy bag
- bottle of water for yourself.
