Baby + Feeding Support Group

We meet an ongoing support group at Peckham Levels. Feel free to drop in for one session or come along to many.

All parents, partners, co-parents and caregivers on all feeding journeys are welcome to join: breast/chestfeeding, pumping/bottle feeding parents, formula feeding, combination feeding and starting solids.

You can find Peckham Levels’ accessibility information here. Please reach out if you have unanswered questions.

Values + Approach

 

We all have different experiences

This means working with people as individuals, acknowledging intersecting identities, experiences, needs and barriers, and how these influence how people relate to motherhood/parenthood and the world around us.

We all deserve to feel respected
We honour bodily autonomy and trust that you are the expert in your body and lived experiences.

There’s not one ‘right way’
We invite curiosity and care into our space. We recognise that we are each at different points in our unique journeys, have different approaches and learn best in different ways.

Community is important
We believe everyone has something they can teach or share and everyone has something they can learn from someone else in the room. This space is yours to connect and find support within.
