La Leche League of Glendora, California

La Leche League is dedicated to the importance of the mother-infant relationship. We believe that breastfeeding not only provides the best nutrition, but that it is also an ideal way to initiate good parent-child relationships, thereby benefiting the whole family.

All women who have an interest in breastfeeding are invited to attend La Leche League meetings and are accepted with open arms. The ideal time to begin attending is during pregnancy because the information received in advance may prove to be vital to a mother when her baby arrives. Bring a friend if you'd like. Remember, you don't have to be a pregnant or new mom to come to meetings. Experienced nursing mothers will also find the meetings helpful and supportive. Babies are always WELCOME at all LLL meetings. Please do bring your breastfed baby - you'll both be happier!!

Meeting Information

La Leche League of Glendora meetings are temporarily on hold. The Leader is available for phone help.

Leader Information
