Resumo: Objective: to assess the evidence on scientific knowledge related to breastfeeding adolescents and the need for nursing care. Method: systematic review seeking the answer to the question: What are the priority learning needs for postpartum nursing care provided to adolescent mothers? A search was conducted on articles available in Portuguese and English, published between 2007 and 2013 and indexed in LILACS, MEDLINE, PubMed, and SciELO databases. Results: the sample consisted of ten articles addressing different needs of adult mothers, related to the new skills and the information necessary to manage postpartum issues regarding self-care and newborn care. Conclusions: the needs were not systematically identified, constituting a multicausal phenomenon arising from a multiplicity of factors from different dimensions that interact with each other, making it difficult to associate only one dimension.
