Initial In-Home consult
Your initial in-person visit is all about addressing your primary concerns (sore nipples, low milk supply, engorgement, what the heck is happening with my body/baby right now) and giving hands on help as needed. This can include:
latching & positioning help
weight check and milk transfer evaluation
oral function assessment for baby
pumping help including flange sizing
bottle feeding support
any of the virtual care topics, but in person!
Follow Up In-Home visits
A shorter version of an initial visit. Choose this option if you have:
already met with me in person
if you would like to do a prenatal appointment in person

At the heart of my care is a deep respect for the diverse cultural backgrounds and traditions that shape your family. I believe that honoring these beliefs fosters meaningful connection and helps create a personalized approach to breast/chest feeding support. I want to ensure that every family feels seen, heard, and empowered throughout their lactation experience. I want to know your background, family traditions and values related to breast/chest feeding and infant care so that we can incorporate your practices into a feeding plan that will work for your family. I am eager to hear more about what matters to you! My role is to listen deeply and to provide you with compassionate, evidence-based knowledge and skilled lactation support while knowing your culture matters to your feeding journey. I lovingly care for all families, including LGBTQ+ families. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where every parent feels respected and confident feeding their baby.
