Supporting Families with Infant Feeding Across Coventry
Feeding your baby is a special and personal journey, and the Coventry Infant Feeding Team is here to make sure every family feels supported — whatever their feeding choice.
We provide practical, evidence-based guidance from pregnancy onwards, helping parents feel confident in breastfeeding, formula feeding, or combination feeding. Our trained Lactation Consultants and Infant Feeding Specialists work closely with the Health Visiting teams to offer one-to-one advice, home visits, and friendly group sessions across local Family Hubs.
Families can also attend pop-up clinics or virtual drop-in sessions for advice on topics such as expressing milk, managing reflux, introducing solids, and relactation.
For guidance on responsive feeding, colostrum collection, and safe formula preparation, visit:
