Churchill established the first infant's clinic at Children's Memorial Hospital and was an advocate of breast feeding but believed that the milk could be spoiled if it was taken at the wrong frequency or if the mother was nervous or anxious, rendering her "utterly unfit to serve the purpose of a cow".
Also an advocate of modified cow's milk (formula milk), he concluded that modified milk could only be afforded by an elite few but was beneficial as it was more closer to breast milk than the alternatives.

His 1896 study, "Infant Feeding", gave a number of case studies of infant feeding and the progress of the child and asked what was the best food for infants in the first year of life?
Churchill stated categorically that "there can be and is but one answer, average breast milk".
In the 1910s, he advocated the employment of wet nurses by hospitals.
