Verbatim
“Breastfeeding is about far more than nutrition alone. It supports health, attachment, emotional wellbeing and family relationships.”
“When it is poorly managed, the consequences for mental health and long-term engagement with services can be profound.”
“Every interaction matters, and through these moments we have the power to shape experiences, build confidence and change lives.”
