The Café will take place at the Baby Wellness Clinic (behind the Guardian Group Insurance Building or Opposite the Yogesh Building). Registration starts at 5.45pmand the information session is from 6.00pm to 8.00pm.

Breastfeeding has so many benefits for a baby and their mother such as perfectly composed nutrients, special bonding moments, the best weight loss plan, and helps financially.
It is the best milk possible for your baby. Dads, don’t feel left out. You will be joyous when your partner is eating right and is receiving your support, your encouragement and the guidance with the tasks surrounding breastfeeding, CPS points out.
“Who wouldn’t want the healthiest feeding for their baby? We know that breastfeeding can have its challenges at times, that’s why we invite you to come out and get the information from different medical professionals in a relaxed environment but also hear some experienced fathers that is currently reaping the benefits of having their toddlers breastfed. See you there,” CPS concludes.
