Explore Our Breastfeeding Support Packages

The gold standard for postpartum care should be continued support after the baby arrives. No one should be left alone searching the internet in the middle of the night for breastfeeding answers.

You should have a lactation consultant who you know and trust. Already have plans for weekly visits. And have a way to contact her with all your questions in between visits.

Most parents feel best when they see their lactation consultant a few times rather than just once.

We want you to be calm, confident, and secure in how breastfeeding is working and we know these packages work.

Whether we meet 6, 8, or 12 times, we are sure to build a good relationship, you’ll get your questions answered, and we can do it without the stress of a rushed office visit with no follow up plan.

“Anne took the time to listen attentively to my concerns, asking thoughtful questions to gain a comprehensive understanding of the issue at hand.

Her ability to analyze the situation and provide tailored recommendations was truly remarkable. Her dedication to finding the best solutions for my baby's well-being.

She presented me with a range of options, taking into consideration both my preferences as a parent and my child's specific needs. Her suggestions were evidence-based, practical, and easy to implement, making me feel empowered and confident in addressing the issue.”

What happens in a consult?

During your appointment we will:

  • review health history

  • discuss birth and postpartum history for both the breastfeeding parent and child

  • complete a breast exam

  • complete an oral assessment on your baby

  • observe and assess feeding at the breast and/or by bottle, depending on your situation

  • measure nipples for flange size

  • observe and assess a pumping session if applicable

  • discuss and create a plan for the next few days

We will provide a written report to your healthcare provider(s).
