About La Leche League

La Leche League is an international, nonprofit, nonsectarian organization dedicated to providing breastfeeding education, information, support, and encouragement. La Leche League groups meet regularly throughout the greater St. Louis area.

There are times when a breastfeeding mother needs support and encouragement from someone who has successfully breastfed her own baby.

La Leche League Leaders are:

  • experienced breastfeeding mothers
  • trained and accredited by La Leche League International
  • able to help with all aspects of breastfeeding
  • volunteers who care about YOU!
