Prenatal Breastfeeding Classes (Denver Health and WIC Locations)

Denver WIC offers free breastfeeding education to all Denver residents at the five different WIC clinics. Please call 303-602-6550 to ask about upcoming times and locations.  

Support with Breastfeeding after Delivery (Postpartum Breastfeeding)

While mom and baby are still at Denver Health recovering from the delivery, a lactation support specialist will visit to help mom and baby get a good start to breastfeeding.

WIC’s goal is to help women learn about breastfeeding and how to successfully start and continue breastfeeding as long as they choose. Breastfeeding information is available in multiple languages and some clinics offer additional service in Spanish.

La Leche League of Denver hosts several breastfeeding support groups throughout Denver and at Denver Health.

Lactation Consultations by Appointment

Weekly Lactation Clinic for Pediatric Patients/New Moms

These special clinics hosted by Webb Pediatric Clinic within the Webb Center for Primary Care and Westside Family Health Center Pediatric Clinic are designed to help ensure that our moms and our newborn patients, receive guidance on nursing from a pediatrician and a nurse who specialize in breastfeeding. Your baby will be weighed before and after the feeding, so you can see how much milk your baby is getting during a feed. You will also be able to ask questions and share concerns with other breastfeeding mothers if you are interested.

We will track your baby’s progress to ensure that the baby is gaining weight and growing properly, and will provide a plan that is unique for you and your baby to make breastfeeding easier. Call Webb clinic at 303-602-8340 and Westside clinic at 303-602-0888 to make an appointment.
