Lactation consultation

Service Description

Breastfeeding is the most effective and efficient way to guarantee a child’s nutrition and health especially in their first two years of life. WHO statistics indicate that globally only 40% of infants are exclusively breastfed and yet if all the children born would be breast fed about 820,000 lives would be saved yearly. There are several reasons why mothers are unable to breastfeed their children and some are beyond control, however there are also some reasons that affecting mothers’ breastfeeding habits that can be avoided, abated and minimised with the right guidance and direction. That is why lactation consultation is important for mothers, especially new moms. Lactation consultations are sessions aimed at helping mothers in their breastfeeding journey to breastfeed their children in the most recommended and appropriate way that will both benefit the child and the mother. Malketha has both in-person and virtual lactation consultation options depending on your need. Consultations may run from one day short sessions to weeks, or a month.
