    Important working materials - Handouts

    We regularly publish important working materials for breastfeeding counselling in our magazine Lactation & Breastfeeding. Here you can download these handouts for free. On the "Laktation & Stillen - Deutsche Ausgabe" page, you will find the same handouts in German.

    Breastfeeding information in different languages

    In breastfeeding counselling, we constantly meet women from the most various ethnic groups.  The language barrier in particular makes it difficult to convey information correctly.  A unified illustrated information sheet with simple texts was ultimately developed from the handout, “Breastfeeding without Words”, which has been translated into 24 languages to date.  We would be happy if you could help us to expand this offering with further languages.
