Our Approach to Infant Feeding Care

One of the most important choices a new parent makes is how to feed their newborn. At Mercy San Juan Medical Center, our physicians, nurses and breastfeeding support specialists are here to help you make the best choice for you and your family. Our approach to infant feeding is guided by compassion, research, real-world experiences and the infant's and family's unique needs. It’s designed to help all families thrive, supporting both breastfeeding families and those who make an informed choice not to breastfeed.
