Feeding your infant is HARD... we've got you covered
Whether you're breastfeeding, bottle feeding, or using a combination, we can help
Is my baby getting enough food? Am I doing this right? Is it supposed to feel this way?
Infant feeding can be one of the most stressful and isolating parts of being a new parent. You’re simultaneously getting to know your new baby and learn their rhythms—all while wondering if you’re doing it right and stringing together enough sleep to function.
The benefits of lactation consultation
Our expert lactation consultants can help you learn how to breast or bottle feed right from the start. Ask all your questions (we guarantee other parents have wondered the same thing!), learn what’s normal, and how to deal with common issues, such as:
- Painful latching
- Milk supply
- Baby reflux
- Nursing strikes
- Slow weight gain for baby
- Bottle refusal
- Weaning
- Pumping
- Managing mastitis
- …and more
Covered by most insurance

Making a real impact
Empower yourself
“While there are many health benefits to breastfeeding, we also know that breastfeeding can be hard! Working with a certified Lactation Consultant is a great way to demystify feeding and empower you with the knowledge and support to meet your personal goals.”
Chief Medical Officer
Exactly what I needed
“I saw other consultants in an office setting and their evaluation was limited. Lisa's in-home visit is exactly what I needed. She was able to evaluate the entire process: my positionings, breast pump, and environment. Her feedback was valuable and helpful. I've implemented her changes and breastfeeding is improving.”

Our lactation consultants are all IBCLC certified (the gold standard in infant feeding care!) with extensive hands-on experience guiding parents and newborns through the joys and challenges of breastfeeding.
