Our support group is a free, drop-in group for mothers who have questions about nursing their baby and are looking for mom-to-mom support. The group is facilitated by a board-certified lactation consultant. Please note, individual consultations are not offered as part of the group.

The Outpatient Lactation Clinic offers appointments for an individualized, one-on-one consultation with a lactation consultant. These visits provide hands on assistance and support for a variety of breastfeeding issues, including latching difficulties, low milk supply, mastitis, sore, cracked nipples, and many other lactation issues. In addition, a visit to the Lactation Clinic is appropriate for any mother who is simply seeking support, encouragement, and answers to routine questions, and can help to build a mother’s confidence throughout her prenatal and postnatal breastfeeding journey.
Clinic visits are covered by insurance. Call 617-243-6314 to make an appointment.

The Lactation team is excited to announce the arrival of our custom-made Mamava nursing pod, which provides moms with a clean, bright and private area for pumping milk and/or breastfeeding their babies—whether they are visiting Newton-Wellesley Hospital or are simply nearby and in need of a private place to feed or pump. The pod illustrates our commitment to finding a better way to support and protect breastfeeding moms and babies, while continuing to better serve the needs of our community.
We are the first hospital in MetroWest to install an accessible nursing pod, and we are thrilled to offer this wonderful option to all mothers in the area—in addition to the lactation support we already provide.
The Mamava pod located in our East Lobby and is private and secure. The pod is free of charge and available 24/7. The pod has two separate seating areas, each equipped with an electrical outlet for pumping. To unlock the pod, mothers can download the free Mamava smartphone app. If they are unable to download the app, they can ask our East Lobby Registration team to call the Lactation team at ext. 6314
