What Does La Leche League Do?
La Leche League of Chico helps parents in the Chico area nurse their babies through peer-to-peer support, encouragement, information, and education. We are a chapter of La Leche League USA. For more information about La Leche League and breastfeeding in general, visit the La Leche League USA site. This group is a safe space to share your parenting journey and seek support. We offer regular meetings to help each other answer the questions and meet the challenges that nursing a child can bring. You'll find new and experienced parents who share their wisdom at our meetings. We believe each and every parent has something essential to offer. We hope you include our meetings as part of your regular schedule. One of our certified La Leche League Leaders facilitates our weekly meetings. Each Leader is a mom experienced in nursing and has received training in common breastfeeding challenges. We also offer breastfeeding classes, support over the phone, and frequent educational posts on social media – ALL FOR FREE.
