OBJECTIVE: To validate a flipchart with respect to self-efficacy in breastfeeding, regarding its content and appearance. METHODS: Based on the translated version of the Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale - Short Form, seven illustrations and their respective flipcharts were prepared. Face validity (clarity / understanding) and content validity (relevance) were performed based on the evaluation of ten judges. RESULTS: The judges considered the methods were successful in relation to clarity / understanding. The Content Validity Index was 0.92 as to the figures, and 0.97 as to the script, characterizing the flipchart as a valid strategy. CONCLUSIONS: The flipchart can be used in various areas where nursing is practiced, including shared patient rooms.
