IMPORTANT NOTE RE COVID-19: There are many service changes to breastfeeding clinics due to current public health concerns about COVID-19 (2019 Novel Coronavirus).
Updated: March 23, 2020
At breastfeeding clinics, a feeding assessment is provided by an IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant). There are two types of breastfeeding clinics in Halton:
- free public breastfeeding clinics
- private breastfeeding clinics
Public breastfeeding clinics
Most breastfeeding clinics require you to access the services at the hospital where you gave birth to your baby. If you had your baby outside of Halton and would like to go to a breastfeeding clinic, you usually need to return to the breastfeeding clinic at that hospital.
