The EOHU is looking for volunteer breastfeeding companions

Are you a parent who has breastfed your baby for 6 months or longer and wants to help new parents achieve the same?

If you answered yes, the Eastern Ontario Health Unit (EOHU) is looking for a volunteer like you to deliver breastfeeding support by phone to new parents in the community. If you’re selected to become a companion, you’ll get to help new parents from the comfort of your own home and any long distance support calls you make will be reimbursed.

You’ll also be provided with a two-day training course:
  • Kilometrage incurred for the training will be paid.
  • Babysitting/childcare cost during the training will be covered.
  • Lunch will be provided during the training.

For more information, call 1 800 267-7120 and ask for Health Line.
