These are such wonderful learning sessions and a fantastic way for people to share questions they would not have thought of themselves.

Commonly asked questions
Webinars run once a month, on the second Tuesday of the month and are targeted towards the needs of parents with 4+ month old babies. You’ll be in the company of other parents going through similar transitions.
Of course, all partners and support people are welcome to attend. Research shows that a partner who understands and supports breastfeeding is a mum’s biggest asset.
Absolutely, our webinars are designed to answer many of your questions – we speak with 60,000+ new parents every year – so we know what you’re searching for answers on. We allow for lots of questions, ask them to the breastfeeding educator or counsellor facilitating the session.
If your situation is complex, or more individual support is your style, we might suggest that you call our National Breastfeeding Helpline which is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Many of our breastfeeding counsellors (who answer your call) also lead our workshops and webinars, and are all informed by the same evidence-led and practical information, free from any commercial bias.
Yes, you sure can. Online Connect & Share webinars are $50 each for non Virtual Village members.
If you plan on attending more than one session, we recommend signing up to become an ABA Virtual Village member to receive access to all five webinars for free.
