Embrace Our Breastfeeding
Services and Classes

The Women’s Village of Mobile is proud to host breastfeeding services and classes for expecting and newly delivered mothers with the support of our experts. Breastfeeding is a unique experience for new and expecting mothers. Nursing may be “natural,” but it’s also very difficult and it is no surprise new mothers need help navigating this new phase of life.

Our experts at The Women’s Village of Mobile are happy to help new mothers learn about the benefits of breastfeeding as well as teach them the best techniques for feeding their newborns.
