My understanding is that under Baby Friendly *everyone* concerned 
with the care of mothers and babies, directly or indirectly,  needs 
to be aware of the breastfeeding policy and where approprite they 
should receive the relevant training.

Not sure what a housekeeper is - maybe what we call a cleaner or a domestic?

Under Baby Friendly in the UK, cleaners and domestics would be 
expected to know the unit supports breastfeeding, that it is 
important, and that there are no restrictions on it.  This does not 
need to take long, and would form part of routine induction and 
ongoing training.
