Training Courses

We have developed a range of accredited training & education sessions which can be delivered both face-to-face and online, which provide information surrounding breastfeeding, optimal infant feeding practices and how families can be supported. We really do have something for everyone.

Our courses are accredited by The Skills and Education Group, which provides an assurance of quality for our learners. The content and quality of our course is audited annually by an independent Skills and Education Group Advisor.

Breastfeeding Peer Support Accredited Training – has been designed for those who are breastfeeding or have previously breastfed, providing them with the knowledge and skills they need to support others. We have 3 different courses available, so whether you’re brand new to Peer Support, or an experienced Supporter looking to increase your skills – we have the course for you!

Breastfeeding Awareness Accredited Training – is aimed at those with little or no prior knowledge of breastfeeding who want to learn more, for example those studying or looking to study healthcare subjects or midwifery, doulas, or nursery nurses. You don’t need any personal experience of breastfeeding to attend.
