Wyandot County WIC is fortunate to have a Breastfeeding Peer Helper to provide new and expectant mothers and their support persons with information and advice on the wonderful benefits of breastfeeding. The Peer Helper, a paraprofessional who lives in the community and is part of the population served by WIC, was carefully selected based upon her years of personal breastfeeding experience along with knowledge in the areas of technique and counseling skills. She works closely with pregnant women, women in the early stages of breastfeeding, women who are weaning their babies, and their support persons. Please feel free to call the WIC office at 419-731-3217 to take advantage of this valuable resource!
You may contact WIC by calling 419-294-3341 or by email at wicwyandot@odh.ohio.gov
WIC hours are Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday 8:30am-4:30pm
