Requirements:

  • Personal experience of breastfeeding a baby.
  • Experience of working or significant volunteering in either health, early years, social care, or education setting in a skill mix team.
  • Ability to plan and organize own workload.
  • Good standard of written and spoken English.
  • Flexibility to be a team member yet can be self-reliant and self-motivated.
