AtlantiCare - Benefits of Breastfeeding

Lactation Consultants

Who are Lactation Consultants? At AtlantiCare our Lactation Consultants are registered nurses who have earned their certification in lactation through the International Board of Certified Lactation Consultants. This means that they have completed additional training to support families with breastfeeding and/or pumping. Breastfeeding and pumping isn’t always easy and when you do need help or have questions, our lactation consultants are here for you. Lactation consultants provide nonjudgmental support for families during their feeding journey: this includes during pregnancy, in the hospital and after delivery. We recognize that every breastfeeding/pumping journey looks different and we are here to support whatever yours looks like!
