Every change needs a champion.
Lamaze International is pleased to launch the newly revised and updated (as of May 2007) six care practice papers that synthesize best practices that promote, support, and protect normal birth, bonding, and breastfeeding for pregnant women and their support teams. The updated six care practice papers are available as resource materials to start and support conversations of change. Childbirth educators are encouraged to be change champions and to incorporate the six care practices into the maternity care that women receive in their communities.
