La Leche League NZ

La Leche League Leaders are accredited by LLLI to provide information and support for breastfeeding families. Every Leader has at least one year of breastfeeding experience, as well as training in breastfeeding management and communication skills. We can help over the phone, you can come along to our informal meetings, or ask a questions via email and on social media. All of this is free and confidential.

La Leche League groups hold regular informal discussion meetings, based on the importance of mother-to-mother support. La Leche League welcomes mothers, pregnant women, their children and support people to gather for encouragement, support, information and discussion on a wide range of breastfeeding and parenting topics. The discussion topics for meetings are flexible depending on the needs of those present. Please bring your questions, concerns and also your achievements and triumphs!

Many groups also hold coffee mornings, where we meet informally in a local public space. This allows mums to come with babies, toddlers and older children, to meet other breastfeeding mums in a baby/breastfeeding/child-friendly environment. Visit our website to find your nearest group.
