Breastfeeding Exclusive Summer 2020 - Project Update
New Website Launch! Ready Set Baby Online
The Connecticut Department of Public Health (CT-DPH) in partnership with the CGBI invites you to the launch of the Ready Set Baby website. https://www.readysetbabyonline.com/
This web adaptation of the Ready Set Baby curriculum was made possible through funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The website contains the content of the original print curriculum and allows expectant parents to choose a self-paced experience to prepare for their breastfeeding journey. Some of the content sections allow visitors to answer questions and earn “badges”. Once completing a section, visitors can download or save a certificate to show they have reviewed the information.
During this time of social distancing, CT-DPH and CGBI are alerting the breastfeeding support community to this additional resource as a way to assist expectant parents with planning for successful breastfeeding when in-person classes may be suspended. Please note that this website does not include COVID-19 specific guidance, however, detailed information for parents can be found at the CDC’s website and the WHO’s website. A Spanish translation of the website will be available in the Spring of 2021.
