Birthingway college of Midwifery's Breastfeeding Center- Grand Opening


Announcing Birthingway College of Midwifery's
Breastfeeding Center
Grand Opening

Saturday, March 20th from 12:00pm-3:00pm

Celebrate the opening of an innovative new type of support system for families in Portland. The Breastfeeding Center will provide Portland families with FREE out-of-hospital breastfeeding support in a comfy home setting. Services include support groups and a space to just hang out and connect with other breastfeeding women, as well as professional help with basic breastfeeding information, return-to-work plans, complex situations, weaning and more.


Birthingway's FREE Breastfeeding Center supports a nursing mother by providing:
  • Personal care with an individualized breastfeeding plan.
  • Free phone support to assess needs
  • A free hour-long consultation with an IBCLC.
Birthingway's breastfeeding support is physiologically based with the least amount of interventions while protecting the well-being of moms and babies.

Center Services are closely supervised by International Board Certified Lactation consultants (IBCLC) with assistance from students participating in our Lactation Program. All client records are kept confidential per HIPPA standards.
