World Breastfeeding Week at Melai Healthcare
Every year from August 1st to 7th, the world comes together to recognize World Breastfeeding Week (WBW)—and at Melai Healthcare, it’s more than just a calendar event. It’s a moment of honoring the strength, dedication, and love of breastfeeding mothers in our community and championing the health of the youngest among us.
Our Theme This Year: “Enabling Breastfeeding: Making a Difference for Working Parents”
This year’s global theme resonates deeply with our mission at Melai Healthcare. We believe that every parent deserves the support they need to nourish their child with confidence—especially working mothers, who often face complex challenges balancing professional life and their child’s well-being.
What We’re Doing
Throughout WBW, Melai Healthcare is hosting activities that reflect our commitment:
• Expert Talks & Q&A Sessions: Pediatricians, lactation consultants, and midwives share practical tips, bust myths, and offer guidance.
• Mama Lets talk:A safe space for breastfeeding moms to connect, share stories, and inspire one another.
• Family Wellness Checks: Free check-ups for babies and consultations for parents—because thriving families start with informed support.
• Workplace Wellness Dialogue: We’re collaborating with local employers to advocate for breastfeeding-friendly work environments, including policies for parental leave and lactation spaces.
A Message from Melai Healthcare
“Breastfeeding is a shared responsibility. When families, healthcare providers, and employers come together, we build stronger futures for our children.”
Join us in celebrating mothers, supporting families, and driving change that lasts beyond this week.
