Ask Us About Breast Pumps

Breast pump

WIC Staff will talk with you about the most ideal options for expressing breastmilk.  We have personal-use electric breast pumps and manual breast pumps at no charge, so we’ll be sure to find the one that best fits your needs.  Whether you’re exclusively pumping or expressing milk occasionally or anywhere in between, WIC can help support you to meet your feeding goals.  Ask us about nursing covers, milk storage bags, and breast pads too.  If you have a plan to return to work or school away from your baby, then we can support you through a variety of situations.
