Minot Baby Café
Donation protected
Minot has been approved for a Baby Cafe and The Pursuit has offered their space to host it! So what exactly a is Baby Cafe?! Baby Cafés provide free, informal, ongoing, high-quality drop-in lactation care in an effort to raise exclusivity and duration rates in their surrounding communities.
Currently, approximately 80% of all US women start breastfeeding, but of those moms, approximately 60% do not reach their own goals. In efforts to improve these rates, Baby Cafés offer support on all aspects of breastfeeding and its impact on daily life – from prenatal to weaning, as well as assistance with pumping and maintaining supply if moms return to work outside the home.
Baby Café sites are run by a range of trained staff of lactation professionals that have specific training and experience in helping breastfeeding families to provide a consistent, high standard of care.
In order to open our Minot Baby Cafe we need to hit our goal of $750! This money covers the licensing fee, training of staff, national support structure, marketing materials, and ongoing evaluation.
