Breastfeeding Support Coffee Mornings
Cuidiú DSE hosts Breastfeeding Support Coffee Mornings twice a month on Thursday Mornings, from 10am to 12pm. These breastfeeding support mornings are hosted in a volunteer’s home throughout South County Dublin. Our Coffee Mornings provide a welcoming, supportive environment for parents anywhere on their breastfeeding or chestfeeding journey. They offer a wonderful opportunity to get trained support from a breastfeeding councillor, or peer support from other parents who are also breastfeeding.
Whether you’re preparing to breastfeed, breastfeeding, combination feeding, pumping, or nearing the end of your breastfeeding journey; we would love to welcome you.
We know that contacting a host to attend can be intimidating, but please do get in touch for exact location details and to express your interest in attending. For information on the next coffee mornings, please check out our Upcoming Events.
Hospital Grade Breastpump Rental
Cuidiú DSE has two hospital grade breast pumps available for hire. They are available to hire at €2 per day, and can be invaluable for parents who require access to a hospital grade pump.
