From breast milk analysis to lactation consulting to breast pumps and pillows, moms and their families have a single stop for breastfeeding needs.

Just in time for National Breastfeeding Month, Baby Bistro & Boutique is marking its fifth anniversary of providing advice, supplies and support to breastfeeding moms.

Moms and their families can buy and rent breast pumps and parts, breastfeeding bras, breastfeeding pillows and many other breastfeeding supplies. Mothers also can make an appointment with a lactation consultant for one-on-one assistance with any issues they’re having breastfeeding.

To ensure safe access to breastfeeding supplies and lactation consulting services during the coronavirus outbreak, we have modified our operations at Baby Bistro & Boutique on the Norton Healthcare – St. Matthews campus. Now you can prepay for your items over the phone with your credit card and wait in your vehicle outside the store, and we will bring them out to you. To rent a hospital-grade breast pump, call (502) 899-6530. Baby Bistro & Boutique is open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to noon and 1 to 4 p.m.
