As Australia’s peak breastfeeding and information service the Australian Breastfeeding Association (ABA) is there for Australian women and families – giving time, understanding, support and information to mothers. Devonport and the surrounding area falls within the boundaries of ABA's Northern Tasmania Group. Visit our webpage at aba.asn.au/northerntasmania for more information about local services. Our qualified breastfeeding counsellors and community educators are volunteers trained in breastfeeding education, who volunteer their skills and time to support families through the many free services ABA provides as a not-for-profit organisation.
