U.S. Food and Drug Administration

Employer’s Perspective:

The FDA building has 3 lactation rooms that are regularly used, on-line booking system, breastfeeding hotline, onsite IBCLC, and child care.

Employee’s Perspective:

The support I received from my supervisor and the nursing mothers program at FDA was amazing. We have a private, peaceful room to pump with a sink, fridge and hospital grade pump. There are monthly mom to mom seminars, support groups and lactation consultant available. I rave about the program to expecting mothers and feel very fortunate to have this nice place to pump. I credit the facilities with my ability to pump and exclusively breastfeed my two kids for their first year.
