Who is a Breastfeeding Peer Counselor?

A WIC Peer Counselor is another mom – like you – who breastfed her baby. She may have had the same issues or questions that you have. She has special training to help you and your baby by giving you practical help and support. Peer Counselors provide basic breastfeeding support, but they do not take the place of health care professionals.

A WIC Peer Counselor is available when others may not be – while you are pregnant and after you have your baby. She will call or text you at home. She’s a great person to talk to. They are available to support you by phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. 

If you are interested in connecting with a Breastfeeding Peer Counselor, tell your WIC educator or call (970)395-1113. You can enroll anytime during your pregnancy or after you have had your baby.
