NCT Kent Infant Feeding Peer Supporters

About

NCT Kent Infant Feeding Peer Support offers friendly, non-judgmental, free, infant feeding support, for parents during pregnancy through to the early stages of parenthood, run by parents who understand the challenges it can bring. Trained peer supporters, with their own experiences, are committed to making sure parents feel supported and connected, during pregnancy and throughout those initial early weeks of parenthood. It’s also a great way to meet other parents going through similar experiences. Connect with them on Facebook or Instagram or email kentsupport@nct.org.uk.
