Breastfeeding Policy

The Practice will not discriminate against any woman in her chosen method of infant feeding and will fully support the visitor/patient.

  • All mothers will be enabled and supported to feed their infants in the Practice premises.
  • Signs welcoming breastfeeding will be displayed in the waiting room.
  • The Practice will ensure that its staff members make comfortable arrangements for mothers who would prefer privacy to breastfeed.
