  • You can get to have your nipples measured on the spot to determine if the flange you're currently using is suitable or not.

  • During the session, mothers will have the opportunity to try out a selection of good-working breast pumps, generously provided by Happy Renting SG, a local pump rental service run by a husband-and-wife team.

    All pump parts and accessories are pre-washed and sterilized for each use. If another mother wishes to try the same pump, parts will be sanitized again on-site to ensure safety and hygiene.

    All pumps are available for rental subject to availability. For more details on terms and conditions for shared pump use and rentals, see the FAQ below.

  • All pumping mothers unite! We will learn and pump together as a group.

Imagine this…

You get to be in a comfortable and safe space, a relaxing atmosphere where you can openly pump and learn without judgment. That's the magic I’m bringing to this workshop!

“As an IBCLC, I've seen firsthand the challenges many pumping mothers face.

This workshop is essential to provide the support, education, and practical guidance needed to build confidence and success.

  • Nope =)

    This workshop is all about supporting moms who pump! I’m not here to promote any specific pump brands.

    I definitely don't think pumping is better than breastfeeding, but it can be a necessary option for some mothers for a variety of reasons.

    My goal is to provide helpful information and resources to support you, whether pumping is your choice or your necessity, so you can feel confident on your journey!

  • Yes, it’s strongly recommended to bring your own pump.

  • Yes! The pumps available to try are in good and working condition. The pumps are also available for rental (depending on availability) from Happy Renting SG.

    Tender Loving Milk is not involved in the rental process for breast pumps.

    Important notes:

    • Single-User Pumps: Most breast pumps are intended for single-user use. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) advises that these pumps can be difficult to fully clean and disinfect for multiple users, which is why they’re generally recommended for individual use.

    • Rental Provider Responsibility: Reliable rental providers typically take responsibility for thoroughly cleaning and regularly inspecting their pumps and accessories.

    • Personal Discretion: Renting a breast pump is entirely your choice and at your discretion. However, please keep in mind that sharing a single-user pump may impact manufacturer support. For any issues with the rental pump, you’ll work directly with the rental company for assistance.

    • Type of pumps that may be available to try during this workshop (subject to availability): Spectra, Imani, S39, Loveamme, Haenim, Baby Budhha, etc.

  • Bringing more than one pump is optional. Ideally, to ensure the best outcome and keeping to the workshop duration, the maximum number of pumps to bring is two.

  • Mothers will be openly pumping. Therefore, no male partners are allowed.

    We are a lesbian-friendly community. Your female partner (+ $45) is welcome to join, as long as she is part of your family network as a spouse/partner, taking care of baby as well.

    • For additional female spouse, please sign up as per normal and email hello@tenderlovingmilk.com with the name and email of your partner. Payment details will be sent to you thereafter.

  • Yes, you may.

  • Suggested items to bring, but no pressure if you don't have:

    • Extra flange sizes that you currently have but confused which one fits

    • Nursing bra with the clip
