The Supplemental Nursing System (SNS) is a supply line feeder consisting of a container filled with supplementary milk that is clipped securely to a bra strap, shirt or pillow. Whilst the baby is latched at the breast / chest, a thin, flexible tube is placed alongside the nipple into the baby's mouth and a controlled and consistent flow of milk is released as they feed.
Supporting mothers and parents to breastfeed / chestfeed
By increasing the opportunity to feed at the breast / chest, the Supplemental Nursing System (SNS)
- facilitates bonding and skin-to[1]skin contact helping to calm and comfort the baby
- promotes milk supply by stimulating the breast through sustained sucking
- supports non-lactating, adoptive, surrogate, same sex, transgender and non-binary parents to create a breastfeeding / chestfeeding experience
- supports the baby’s oral development of sucking skills to create vacuum
- promotes normal oro-facial growth in babies
- provides milk supplementation without the use of bottles and teats
