Amazon apologizes after a businesswoman says she was not allowed to bring her breastfed five-month-old daughter to a course. According to reports, Rachael Bews told the company in advance that she would need to breastfeed her child during the day. Despite this prior notification, she was reportedly prevented from attending with the baby. The company then issues an apology following the complaint, according to the accounts published by outlets covering the incident.
The coverage focuses on the steps Bews says she took beforehand to explain her needs, including telling Amazon ahead of time that feeding would be necessary while she attended the course. Across the reports, the central points are that the woman required daytime breastfeeding for her child, that she communicated this in advance, and that Amazon subsequently apologizes after the situation. The reports do not provide further details about the course content, the specific reason given at the time for barring the baby, or any additional outcomes beyond the apology.
