Breastfeeding-Friendly Business Pledge

Written by Larissa Skjonsberg | Mar 17, 2016 5:00:00 AM

The Breastfeeding-Friendly Business Pledge shows that a business is willing to provide an environment where mothers are able to breastfeed in public spaces and enjoy a welcoming attitude from staff, management, and other patrons while breastfeeding.

By taking the pledge, your business demonstrates a commitment to mothers, children, and families in our South Dakota communities.

As the authorized representative for my business, I pledge to:

  • Provide a welcoming environment where breastfeeding mothers are able to breastfeed in public spaces within the business.
  • Encourage a welcoming attitude from staff, management, and to the fullest extent possible, other customers.
  • Place the Breastfeeding Welcome Here window cling in each public entrance to our business establishment.
  • Accommodate breastfeeding employees to allow appropriate time and space necessary to pump, to the best of our ability.
