I provide individual lactation consultations for families with a child of any age, whether they are having difficulties, or simply want support and education concerning breastfeeding. As an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, I offer home and office visits to help women and babies with a host of issues concerning breastfeeding. These issues may include:

  • Difficulties with latch, positioning
  • Sore or injured nipples
  • Engorgement
  • Baby who is fussy or sleepy at the breast
  • Excessive weight loss or inadequate weight gain
  • Concern about milk supply
  • Multiples
  • Illness, prematurity, or baby's development that interfere with breastfeeding
  • Bringing baby to breastfeeding after finger feeding, bottle feeding, nipple shields, formula, or other supplementation or feeding methods
  • Other breastfeeding questions and concerns

Many women self-refer for lactation consultations. Others are referred by their midwife, physician, pediatrician,or other health care practitioner.

Visits can often be scheduled within 24-48 hours.

I also provide classes on breastfeeding, for pregnant families and for those with babies up to about a year old. See my Classes page for more information.

For further information about lactation consultations, classes, fees or to schedule a class or appointment, please contact me. You can find my contact information on the Contact page of this web site.
