If you would like to help, all items need to be received by November 24th.

We are looking for new or gently used items for young families. Items like toys, home decor, baby necessities, clothes for various sizes (especially winter gear), stocking stuffers, hygiene items (from baby to adult), puzzles, games, craft/playdoh/colouring for children.

Everything that is in great condition will be helpful.

Drop off can be at the clinic during business hours, or we have a Keswick drop off location (PM for that address).

Thank you for all your support!

The MYR family has grown just a little bit!

Our newest member isn’t ready to attend births yet… but maybe in 20-25 years if she decides to follow in her mama’s footsteps!

Welcome Anne, who was born with the help of Edie, Karey and her big sister! 🥰

Today we remember;

All the pregnancies that ended before they truly began.
The pregnancies cut way too short.
The babies whose first breath was never taken.
The infants who cherished every moment they had with their families.

We remember them. We speak about them. Let us never forget them.

National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day. 🩷💙

La La Leche League Canada has been around for a long time, supporting families all across Canada.

This story is incredible, thank you Gail for sharing it!

So many incredible stories cross our paths! At one of our LLLatch-On events we were honoured to hear one that reflects the heart of La Leche League Canada.

This is Gail, who was supported by LLLC during her breastfeeding journey. She went on to breastfeed 10 children, including twins, and even tandem nursed a toddler alongside her newborns. When one of her 2 year olds was diagnosed with cancer and receiving treatment at Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto, Gail returned to nursing him because it was the only food he could manage during treatment.

Now, decades later, Gail’s story is a reminder that LLLC’s support doesn’t just touch one moment in time, it ripples through generations of families. Her son is now 40 years old and thriving, and her journey continues to inspire.

Her story is a reminder of the generations of families LLLC has walked alongside, offering information, encouragement, and compassionate support through both everyday moments and extraordinary challenges.

Gail, you are a true rock star! Thank you for showing us what resilience and love look like. 💙

Shout out to the LLLC - Newmarket Group for sharing Gail's story and for hosting a great LLLatch-On Event!
