Hi Karen,
The Australian Breastfeeding Association has such an initiative. You 
might like to see the details on the ABA website at 
http://www.breastfeeding.asn.au/advocacy/welcome.html

The kits provided to potential venues include two stickers - one that 
faces outwards and one to be used through clear glass, plus details 
of the criteria for accreditation, etc. As you will see, they get 
'advertising' on the ABA website as one of the advantages to them. 
This initiative began as a local project, and has been taken on 
nationally by ABA.
