Building Latching Skills with Avery Young, IBCLC
MVBN SEPTEMBER 2025 ANNUAL BREASTFEEDING CONFERENCE WITH LEADING LACTATION EXPERT AVERY YOUNG, IBCLC
Conference Recap
We’re thrilled to share that our recent breastfeeding conference was a wonderful success!!!
We had the honor of hosting leading lactation expert Avery Young, who shared valuable new techniques for helping babies latch across all different body and breast types. The sessions were engaging, practical, and left everyone with tools they can bring back to their own communities.
Another highlight was the opportunity to connect with IBCLCs from across the country—from as far as California, Arizona, and Boston, as well as our neighboring counties here in New York. The exchange of ideas and experiences was truly inspiring and reinforced the importance of collaboration in our work.
Special thank you to Ania and Christine who helped organize this event from start to finish and made it all possible!!!
Together, we’re continuing to strengthen breastfeeding support in our communities! This conference reminded us how powerful collaboration can be—and we’re excited to keep the momentum going!
