  Mothers at Work Breastfeeding Program  
     
 

We’re huge fans of working moms.
That’s why we work so hard for them.


Without support, working mothers who are breastfeeding may delay their return to work or quit altogether. LifeCare’s premium breastfeeding program keeps your working moms coming back by making it easy for them to balance work with breastfeeding.

Breastfeeding has health benefits for mother and baby that also positively impact your organization.

What's in it for you?

  • Fewer sick baby doctor visits, lower parent absenteeism
    While the national average for sick baby doctor visits is 3.6 per year, 74% of Mothers at Work participants had three or fewer sick baby doctor visits in a one year period—and 65% had two or fewer visits
  • Enhanced morale and loyalty
    91% of participants felt the program increased their morale and loyalty levels toward their employer
  • Reduced health care claims
    66% of participants are still breastfeeding at six months, compared to the national average of 41.9%. That’s crucial because breastfed babies cost your organization significantly less money
