Are you interested in joining our team of volunteer blog contributors?
In 2015, our project began with a few passionate moms in NYC. United together, they were excited to support other women and normalize breastfeeding. Since then, our small breastfeeding community has blossomed around the world. While our photo shoots and Big Latch On events remain in localized areas across the globe, our online community now reaches thousands of moms every week.
Together, we continue to grow, support, and “Spread the breastfeeding love.” However, Breastfeeding World needs you to join our team of volunteer blog contributors. Here, we continue to grow and support our amazing mommy readers!
