About Us

Mothers at Work®, a service provided by LifeCare®, Inc., is the leading workplace breastfeeding program. Your employer—and other employers nationwide—offer this program to support expectant parents and breastfeeding mothers in the workplace—and provide assistance and support during pregnancy, family leave and after returning to work.

The Mothers at Work program offers:

Round the clock counseling from certified lactation consultants
Our highly qualified, compassionate Lactation Consultants are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to provide mothers with breastfeeding support. Simply call our consultants day or night to receive the support, counseling, and encouragement you need.

Should you require face-to-face assistance, we can also refer you to certified lactation consultants and breastfeeding support groups in your local area.
