RE: request for day care and breastfeeding information Have you seen the "Breastfed Babies Welcome Here" materials from USDA? They were specifically designed for day care centers. There is a book for mothers that a child care provider can use to encourage mothers to breastfeed. There is also a poster, and a book for child care providers. The book has a reference to a curriculum developed in Colorado. Available from the Colorado Breastfeeding Task Force. This past summer we (Minnesota WIC, CACFP, Extension, and DHS) jointly sponsored a videoconference on supporting the breastfeeding woman who returns to work or school. We are just finishing editing the video from the conference now. (It was not professionally recorded, and it shows. Has a panel, including day care providers and mother's who use child care discussing some of the issues. Also an overview of breastfeeding benefits, and basics, and tips on returning to work or school. ) If you are interested let me know, and I will email the info on getting a copy of the tape when it is available. My appologies if someone has already posted this reference--I've been out of the office, and catching up on some older posts today. Mary Johnson
