Five-Day Training Courses

A Baby Friendly course

Home > Training > Baby Friendly Initiative Courses > Five-Day Training Courses

NOTE: We are not currently offering five-day courses at this time – please book onto each course individually.

The five-day courses provide healthcare staff and other interested parties with a foundation for supporting optimal care for new mothers, their babies and families, and offer the opportunity to develop a training package. There will be a strong focus on the importance of relationship building, involving parents as true partners in care, and supporting breastmilk use and the transition to breastfeeding.

The five-day courses are delivered over an initial three days, followed by two days and with a gap of two weeks in between.

In addition to the five taught days, participants will receive:

  • Access to the Breastfeeding and Relationship Building pre-course e-learning package
  • The Train the Trainer package of resources
  • The Leadership Training pack
  • The Breastfeeding and Relationship Building and Train the Trainer handbooks
