Menlo Park, CA. 3/7/2019. Presque held its first reception with community leaders, investors, and friends the historic Gatehouse
Every parent wants to give their baby the best possible start in life! With the constant flow of new discoveries around the advantages of breastfeeding to both mother and baby and the current emphasis on increasing breastfeeding rates around the globe, there has never been a better time to launch a revolutionary new product to have a real impact on breastfeeding success rates and the health of moms and babies.
The Presque journey started in 2012 after its founder learned that a family member stopped breastfeeding within the first month postpartum because of insufficient breast milk. This sparked an idea and she continued its development until 2016 when she decided to make it a reality. At the reception the guest met the diverse team of professionals who share this exciting vision and learned about our progress to date and future plans.

Eileen Chan, MD, Founder Pediatric Wellness Group, Stanford Children Hospital & UCSF; and Eliza Chin, the Executive Director at The American Medical Women’s Association; explained the medical need and why Presque is much needed to address this need.
