“BREASTFEEDING
AND WORK,
LET’S MAKE IT WORK!”
Join the global effort to support working mothers and breastfeeding!
Here are some ways CACFP can celebrate World Breastfeeding Week 2015:
CACFP sponsors can:
-
Share tips on creating a breastfeeding-friendly environment.
-
Showcase ways their facilities welcome breast feeding mothers.
-
Promote breastfeeding in August newsletters, emails, and other communication tools.
CACFP child care centers and homes can:
-
Remind mothers about the benefits of breastfeeding their babies.
-
Encourage working mothers to continue breastfeeding.
-
Create a bulletin board promoting breastfeeding. See Healthy Meals Resource System’s “Bulletin
Board Resources” and the
WIC Bulletin Board Exchange for fun and easy ideas!
-
Write a note of “thanks” to mothers from their breastfeeding babies.
