Our Story

How It All Started

CAMFEB traces its roots back to 2015 when a group of passionate individuals came together with a shared vision: to support and empower career mothers through exclusive breastfeeding.

Inspired by their own experiences as working mothers, the founders recognized the challenges faced by women who strive to balance their professional aspirations with the demands of motherhood.

Driven by a desire to create positive change, the founders embarked on a journey to advocate for breastfeeding-friendly policies and provide essential support and resources to working mothers across the nation.

Since our humble beginnings, we have made significant strides in advancing our cause and making a tangible impact in the lives of career mothers and their babies. From establishing lactation stations in corporate offices to conducting educational workshops for healthcare professionals, each milestone has been a testament to our unwavering commitment to our mission.
