Breastfeeding support
Our education and resource program is here to make breastfeeding easier. Our educators pride themselves on empowering you. And while we can't be there for that 3 am feeding, we can offer peace of mind that you're doing it right.
Care, compassion, expertise
Sharp nurses receive annual education on breastfeeding, and all new nurses who care for mothers and babies receive an additional 20 hours of breastfeeding education, 5 hours of which are spent working directly with a lactation consultant. Our nurses pride themselves on empowering you. While we can't be there for that 3 am feeding, we can offer peace of mind that you're doing it right.
Supporting your breastfeeding journey
From breast pumps to expert guidance, our program provides all the breastfeeding resources you may need.
We believe that breastmilk is the best milk, and encourage:
Breastfeeding over formula
Breastfeeding within one hour of delivery
Skin-to-skin contact to inspire breastfeeding
Taking safe medications while breastfeeding
Learning more about our infant feeding policy
While breastfeeding is usually healthier than formula feeding for both mom and baby, we understand if parents prefer or must use formula. We provide a caring, supportive environment for every parent, every time, no matter what their feeding choice.
Get personalized support from our lactation consultants
All our lactation consultants are registered nurses with specialized training. Meaning, they're equipped to recognize and prevent breastfeeding problems, putting their sole focus on the nursing mother and her newborn. If you have breastfeeding challenges, our lactation consultants are here to help you.
