The IBCLC Care Directory lists recognized hospitals, birthing facilities, birthing services, and community-based health agencies that hire currently certified International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLCs) and have a dedicated lactation support program.
These facilities also have demonstrated they have provided training for their nursing, medical, and other staff that care for breastfeeding families, and have implemented special projects that promote, protect, and support breastfeeding and the lactation consultant profession.
The International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners (IBLCE) and the International Lactation Consultant Association (ILCA) provide this directory as a service to the public. However, these listings do not constitute a referral to, endorsement of, or warranty regarding any facility, services, or products provided by any facility or any individual IBCLC.
