Breastfeeding support

Our breastfeeding support service is a free service, available for families living in the Mornington Peninsula Shire. Our Maternal and Child Health nurses in this program are experienced lactation consultants who can provide information and support with breastfeeding challenges.

Breastfeeding support is offered at 3 locations across the Shire:

  • Dromana
  • Mornington
  • Somerville

To book in for a breastfeeding consultation, either speak to your MCH nurse or contact our Child & Family Health team on 5950 1099

For more immediate support, the Australian Breastfeeding Association Helpline is available 7 days a week by calling 1800 686 268
