La Leche League is a non-profit, apolitical, non-denominational, and non-governmental organization set up in 1956 to provide Breastfeeding information and support to women and families in the United States. It now has a presence in over 60 countries worldwide.  La Leche League Switzerland (LLLCH) has been successfully supporting and promoting Breastfeeding in Switzerland for more than 30 years.

 

Why Support Breastfeeding? Amongst other reasons, because breastfeeding benefits:

• the health of both mother and child;
• the bond and attachment between parent and child;
• solidarity between families; and
• the environment

La Leche League Switzerland provides this website as a free resource for anyone looking for information and support.

Our LLL Leaders also offer free personalized information and support, by phone, by email or in person and provide forums, through monthly LLL Series Meetings, for the exchange of experiences between parents and for parents to ask questions of professionals.

In Switzerland, English Leaders and Meetings can be found in Canton Zurich (Kilchberg, Meilen), Canton Zug (Innerschweiz), Canton Geneva, and Canton Vaud (Nyon and Lausanne).
