Rochester Regional Health Baby Cafes are a network of breastfeeding drop-ins run by lactation specialists that offer education and support to any pregnant person or breastfeeding mother in the community at any stage in the breastfeeding journey. All services are provided free of charge.
Rochester Regional Health Baby Cafes are virtual. For virtual sessions, all pregnant or breastfeeding mothers are invited to attend one of our scheduled Zoom sessions. Please join us via video chat from any device by using the information below.
