The Mothers’ Corner at BWH is a private, comfortable room available to all BWH and Partners employees returning to work after maternity leave. This room enables women to express milk while at work, allowing them to continue breastfeeding their infants while easing the transition back into work after maternity leave. Available seven days/week and 24 hours/day to accommodate all work schedules, the Mother’s Corner is located on the 9th Floor, Room 958, of the Connors Center for Women’s Health.
Additional breastfeeding resources available to BWH staff and employees include a free pamphlet (which has tips on breastmilk storage, returning to work after maternity leave and pump rental information), a lending library and a variety of educational programs.
