The Breastfeeding Counseling Training Course from WHO is good resource with helpful graphics for the breastfeeding section of your IYCF training.

UNICEF created generic IYCF counseling cards and a key messages booklet that provide excellent visual aids (flip charts, key messages, etc.) to use in most IYCF counseling programs. These may need to be translated into local languages.  Also, pictures of people, clothing, and foods may need to be adapted for local culture and context.

UNICEF also provides additional programmatic resources that provide a complete IYCF counseling package to complement the UNICEF counseling cards and key messages booklet above.
