Our Baby-Friendly Environment
constitutes an initiative that encourages and recognizes our birth centre because it offers a high level of care for breast-feeding mothers and their babies. Focus is placed on mother-baby bonding through skin-to-skin contact.
A significant measure towards the promotion of breast-feeding and baby bonding involves the keeping of the baby in the same room with the mother from the beginning, without separation unless additional monitoring for medical safety is required. The measure reassures the mother that her new bundle of joy is secure with her at all times.
