Breastfeeding Café

Breastfeeding Café Every Thursday (all year round)
10am to 11am
The Brae Cafe, Glencorse Centre,
Auchendinny, EH26 0QZ Other children are very welcome to the group.

The Breastfeeding Cafe is an informal, drop in session welcoming anyone looking for information and support; or even just looking to make some new friends! The Glencorse Centre was presented with a Breastfeeding Friendly Award in June 2014 which means that you will always find space or privacy as you need it, and nobody will make you feel uncomfortable. The session is facilitated by Breastfeeding Network trained volunteers and provides a warm, safe and supportive space to chat about breastfeeding and meet other breastfeeding and chestfeeding mothers and birthing parents.

Did you see that our antenatal sessions are coming to Penicuik?! Our first session is next weekend! Here are all upcoming dates and locations so you can find the session that works best for you. Sessions are suitable from around 34 weeks onwards.

Our Bump Buddy sessions cover breastfeeding, bonding with your baby and what to expect in the early days of parenthood. It is also a great opportunity to meet other local mums due at the same time as you.

You are welcome to bring along a partner, friend or family member- whoever will be supporting you once baby arrives. It can be helpful for them to learn a bit more breastfeeding and the best way to support you.

All our sessions are FREE but it's helpful for us to know who to expect so please reserve your spot here:

We celebrated our 11th year of Breastfeeding Cafe this morning with b***y balloons!
Since 2014 we have supported something like 540 families from our little nest in the Glencorse Centre. Thanks to The Breastfeeding Network (UK) for our training and support, and to the whole family Midlothian Breastfeeding Support.
