Breast/Chest-feeding is one of the best ways to protect the health of both you and your baby. Not only does it create a special bond with your baby, but it also has many long-term health benefits and is a safe and affordable way to feed your baby. The American Academy of Pediatrics and the World Health Organization both recommend breast/chest-feeding exclusively for 6 months and then up to at least a year (and longer if possible)!
Thurston County has many local resources for you because we know how important it is to have the support and information you need!

Established in 2000 the South Sound Lactation Network (SSLN) is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization focused on encouraging and promoting breastfeeding/chestfeeding and lactation in the South Sound region of Washington State. We are a local coalition and are a part of the Washington State Lactation Collaborative (WLC).
This site was developed to help expectant families quickly and efficiently find doulas who are available during their due dates. It’s also a great place to get a baseline understanding of each doula’s training, certification, and experience levels.
Currently DoulaMatch only lists doulas in the US and Canada.
PAT- An Evidence-Based Early Intervention Program
PAT is a relationship-based and parenting-focused early childhood home visiting program. It is designed to help parents learn more about parenting and their child’s development, provide support with the challenges of family life, and help identify and address any concerns parents may have about their child. PAT Parent Educators provide home visits twice a month, a monthly group in both Olympia and Centralia, developmental screenings, and resource connections. The PAT program is free and voluntary. PAT works with families until the child is 5 years old. Services are offered in English or Spanish, and in Thurston County and the Centralia and Chehalis area.
Who is eligible for PAT?
The PAT Model includes these components of parent education and family support:
If you have questions about the PAT program at CYS, please contact Jill Madison at or via .
This program is supported in part by funding from the Washington State Department of Children, Youth & Families and the Department of Social and Health Services.
