A PERSONAL MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDER:

Welcome to Breastfeed Inc. This company was originally established in Savannah, Georgia in 2002, as a direct result of an identified need for support and education of breastfeeding within the local community. To date, there are no other organizations offering the comprehensive support services of Breastfeed Inc. in this community.

Women and their babies are being discharged from hospital within 48 – 72 hours of delivery, before the breastfeeding relationship is well established. Research has shown that early support and assistance with the initiation of breastfeeding has a positive influence on the duration of breastfeeding.  At Breastfeed Inc., we strive to provide the highest quality, individualized support and assistance to the mother and her baby in her own home, or on site, as needed.  All programs are individually tailored to meet the specific needs of the client.
