ABOUT THE CONFERENCE:

This conference offers community healthcare professionals (public health nurses, childbirth educators, dieticians, lactation consultants, clinic nurses, physicians, doulas and midwives) an opportunity to learn common breastfeeding challenges experienced by mothers after leaving the hospital.

In 2010 we featured some great speakers who shared the latest and greatest on topics like latch, food allergies in the infant, dental implications for breastfeeding infants and managing milk supply.  Attendees enjoyed a spectacular lunch from celebrated Pacific Northwest chef, Tamara Murphy, and Elliot Bay Cafe.

Our conference was a terrific success and we give a heartfelt thank you to those businesses who sponsored, supported & donated. We couldn't have done it without them!
