About this Event
Breastfeeding support for parents within the Wokingham Borough area. One to one appointments at Brambles are available to book for 9.30am, 10.15am and 11am (please check which ticket you are booking so you get your desired timeslot).
Appointments are with BfN volunteer peer supporters. BfN volunteers have experience of breastfeeding and they are also trained to provide evidence-based information and support to other parents.
General info:
- If you would like to bring another adult with you, please be aware we will need to check on a case-by-case basis whether this exceeds the number of people allowed in the room and if other attendees are comfortable. We recognise the importance and great benefit of having partners there too, but also just want to make sure everyone receiving support feels comfortable. (If necessary, it may be that your partner could wait outside the room for a few minutes whilst someone finishes feedings, or we do a bit of furniture rearranging, or it may be fine as is). Thank you for your understanding.
- Booking details are monitored by staff and volunteers within BfN Wokingham.
- Please note: No refreshments are provided.
Arrival
- If arriving by car, you will need to park on the road, we suggest Budges Road if possible. If you are a Blue Badge holder, please use the parking space available in the car park and let the centre know you have a Blue Badge when you buzz in at the main gates.
- The pedestrian entrance is at the back of the building. On Budges Road there is a pathway in between the nursery and the Children’s Centre. Please take this path, there will be a gate with a sign for midwife and breastfeeding support on it. At the big main gate for the children’s centre, please press the buzzer and you will be let in.
NB: Please do not go through the gate that is now access for the Foundry/Children’s centre staff only.
- If you bring a pram or pushchair with you, please use the Buggy Shelter provided (this is important as Brambles has a policy of no buggies inside the centre and they have asked us to ensure this rule is met for those attending our appointments too).
- Brambles are encouraging service users and volunteers to wear masks whilst walking through the building
- The appointment will take place in the Training room. Please sign in at Reception (in case of fire) and the children’s centre may ask you to complete a registration form
- Please use the hand sanitizer provided.
Appointment
- Please also be aware that some parents might still wish to wear masks when attending a group or other support - this will be supported.
- If possible, try to keep some distance from people outside your household.
- Equipment will be cleaned at the end of one appointment, before the next one starts.
