Available 24/7 · No Cost · For all Berkshire Families

We aim to improve maternal and infant health in the Berkshires. We provide free programs and evidence-based feeding support for new and expecting families, from pregnancy through the early years of family life — so every family has the expert guidance and community they need to thrive.

Our vision is a Berkshire County where every family — in every corner of this rural, underserved region — has access to the expert support and compassionate care they need to thrive from the very beginning. Where a parent’s zip code never determines the quality of their care, and where our community's youngest members get the strongest possible start.

We serve families throughout all of Berkshire County who are pregnant, postpartum, or parenting infants.

  • “BNF has been by my side since the very beginning of my postpartum journey, and I truly cannot express how much their support has meant to me. They have guided me through the challenges of breastfeeding while giving me confidence and a deep sense of peace during such an overwhelming time.”

    — Lorena

  • “The gatherings and groups [BNF] runs were great. It was nice to be around other parents and a good opportunity to try to meet people.”

    —Tricia

  • “Not only did [BNF] provide nursing support and weight checks, they also gave gentle supportive encouragement for being a mom to a newborn. Middle of the night worries were quickly addressed with the text line and kind approach from all staff. I am truly grateful to live in the Berkshires and have access to this invaluable resource.”
