Activities
Mamas Day Out Events
A significant part of what Lactoboost does, has to do with the community. As a business
founded by a mother who suffered from breastfeeding difficulty herself, our business is
fully aware of the stigma attached to breastfeeding difficulty as well as societal
pressures. Our brand is committed to making lives of new mothers better through
spreading awareness, communication and creating a safe space for new mothers to
commiserate and share their woes.
