Infant feeding care during Covid-19

As health professionals across the UK continue to navigate challenges posed by the coronavirus pandemic, the Baby Friendly Initiative conducted a series of surveys in order to better understand how infant feeding provision has been affected.

These reports relay initial findings from three surveys conducted via the National Infant Feeding Network (NIFN) across 2020 and 2021 and share insights into the changes experienced by maternity, neonatal and community services throughout the coronavirus pandemic. Download the new 2021 report for a look at our most recent findings.
