Barnsley infant feeding team offer support, information and encouragement throughout your breastfeeding experience. The infant feeding team will contact you via telephone once you have been discharged home from the hospital. During this call you will have the opportunity to discuss any questions or concerns that you may have about breastfeeding. The team will then arrange follow up contact which may continue in the form of telephone support or face to face support at your home or in a Family Hub. Or, if you would prefer, you are also able to access virtual support through Microsoft Teams. The support is tailored to your needs. You can contact the team at any point should you wish to discuss anything further.
You can also receive further support relating to topics such as introducing solid foods, stopping breastfeeding and returning to work.
