The Importance of Maternal Thriving for Breastfeeding Outcomes

We honour your needs and your humanity as a person that exists outside the role of mother / feeder.

Creating a feeding plan that fosters your own wellbeing is essential. Breastfeeding success must be built on a foundation of maternal thriving.

Too often it can feel that in their role as breastfeeder, mothers are dehumanised. Acting as a vessel. Mothers often receive messages that their basic human needs should be sacrificed in order to support babe into thriving.

But the reality is: babies thrive when their mother thrives.

So we consider your wellness as a key part of the feeding relationship.

Your experience and your nurturance matters. And so, at Juno, we center maternal health and maternal thriving as essential components of the way we approach breastfeeding.

We believe that no breastfeeding plan is whole and right if it comes at the expense of maternal wellbeing.

We know that if we can take the time and space to help you strongly find your feet in feeding - in equally supporting both your babe and yourself - truely the best outcomes emerge for all.

And while we’ve got you here. We’ll just say again:

Your worth as a mother will never be defined by your ability to breastfeed your baby.
