Breast Feeding Information

Pembury is a community where breastfeeding families feel welcomed!

We have a supportive breastfeeding environment

Breast milk is the ideal source of nutrition for infants for at least the first year of life.

Mothers are welcome to breastfeed (or express breast milk) and a secluded space will be provided.

In the reception area of the setting we have a display with free booklets on breastfeeding for families to take home if they wish.

Breast milk is the most complete form of nutrition for infants, with a range of benefits for infants’ health, growth, immunity and development.
