Background: breast-feeding constitutes the natural food of human species, that is why we should exhaust all our efforts in guaranteeing the boy is exclusively fed at least to breast until the first six months after born. Objective: to demonstrate the effectiveness of a breast-feeding program in a group of mothers. Method: an educational intervention study to demonstrate the effectiveness of a breast-feeding program in a group of mothers of ten doctor's offices of the East Polyclinic, Camagüey Municipality was performed from January 2007 to May 2008. The universe was constituted by 55 mothers with probable childbirth dates among June 1st and August 31 2007, to those were applied a form with different variables and a knowledge survey before and after the intervention. Results: the group from 30 to 34 years prevailed. The 83,3% of those interviewed didn't know appropriately of breast-feeding, and 9,72% only reached it in exclusive way until more than six months. Conclusions: children didn't receive exclusive breast-feeding until the sixth month got sick with more frequency, the intervention was satisfactory because the level of the participants' knowledge rose and it was achieved a bigger number of women suckled until after the sixth month.
