What is IBCLC?
International Board Certified Lactation Consultants function and contribute as members of the maternal-child health team. Working together with mothers, families and healthcare teams, IBCLC certificants provide expert breastfeeding and lactation care, promote changes that support breastfeeding and help reduce the risks of not breastfeeding.
