Ybreast @Work: Revolutionary Corporate Lactation Program Helps Nursing Moms Return to the Workforce

ROSLYN, N.Y. - March 31, 2014 - PRLog -- New York, NY – March 31, 2014 – Ybreast, a concierge breastfeeding support service, provides corporate lactation support services to help nursing mothers return to the workforce. Ybreast’s corporate lactation program, Ybreast @Work, is the first of its kind and the only provider of corporate lactation support services able to certify corporate compliance with the Affordable Care Act and state law.

Drawing upon years of legal and lactation expertise, Ybreast @Work offers corporate policy reviews, management training, communication assistance between supervisors and employees, the design and setup of lactation spaces that include the provision of hospital-grade breastfeeding equipment, the development and management of transitional plans for the nursing mom’s return to work, and ongoing 24/7 breastfeeding support for employees.

Research finds that companies who implement corporate lactation programs experience profound and positive impacts on their bottom line. Just a few of these important dividends include lower turnover rates, earlier returns from maternity leave, health care savings, increases in employee morale, productivity and employer loyalty, positive public relations, and a decrease in legal liability. The insurance company CIGNA conducted a 2-year study of 343 employees who participated in their lactation support program, and found that the program resulted in an annual savings of $240,000 in health care expenses, 62% fewer prescriptions, and $60,000 savings in reduced absenteeism rates.

Ybreast offers professional, reliable, and individualized 24/7 breastfeeding support based upon cutting-edge scientific research. Founded by former Wall Street lawyer turned lactation guru Debi Yadegari, Ybreast brings moms a new type of concierge service: one that’s focused on getting nursing mothers the support they need where they need it – at home (Ybreast @Home), at work (Ybreast @Work), and on the go (Ybreast Travels).
