Our History

Since 1998, we’ve helped over 10,000 families in Berkshire County, MA navigate becoming a parent and feeding babies. Our founder, Rosalie Girard, began BNF with the goal of helping newborns thrive and supporting our community.

Rosalie believed that lactation and parenting support should available to everyone, regardless of their ability to pay. She worked hard to secure grant funding and donations to make sure that all families have access to BNF’s amazing services.

Rosalie retired aftrer 20 years serving the Berkshire County community and we work everyday to continue her mission with passion and a commitment to maternal and child health.
