The 2010 Area Conference will be an exciting event and there's no vacation destination that is as pro-breastfeeding, baby, and family friendly as a La Leche League conference. We will see you there! As one local Leader said, "LLL conferences are wonderful events! I always come away from them with renewed enthusiasm about LLL, valuable information and ideas about parenting, and a big dose of "warm fuzzies" from seeing friends, spending time with family, hearing inspirational speakers, and being around happy children and families (you rarely, if ever, hear a child cry at an LLL conference)."

Attention to all Lactation Consultants, Midwives, Plunket and Well Child Nurses, Neonatal & Paediatric Nurses, Childbirth Educators, Dietitians, Speech Language Therapists, Doctors, Breastfeeding Counsellors:
The NZLCA workshops will provide a rich learning environment for lactation professionals and others who assist mothers and babies with breastfeeding. Emphasis will be on breastfeeding case studies, complex breastfeeding problems, donor milk banking and community support.
