What we do
We are passionate about supporting breastfeeding families from pregnancy through postpartum and believe that every family should have access to the critical support of a lactation counselor, regardless of income. This is why we offer lactation support in the Capitol Region on a financial sliding scale. We also schedule visits both virtually and in-person.*
*All in-person visits will follow CDC guidelines, including appropriate use of face masks.
Initial Consultation
An initial conversation where we gather information, assess and observe your experience and develop a clear plan of support.
Follow Up Support
Depending on the outcomes of the initial consultation, follow up visits may be recommended.
Prenatal
For families who want to prepare for their breastfeeding journey, including a postnatal breastfeeding plan and access to local recommended resources.
The Mini
Only need a little help? The mini is perfect for those with general questions, and for those with non-complex issues. Mini visits are 20 minutes long, and are held virtually.
Service Details
Initial Consultation
First, I will gather you and your baby’s health history and hear your birth story.
We’ll talk about how breastfeeding is going and what your short and long term goals are.
Depending on your experiences, I will observe a feeding, providing immediate advice to help you on your journey.
Shortly after your visit, you will receive a clear plan with next steps, recommended follow-up, and contact information for any relevant resources.
A report can also be sent to your baby’s pediatrician or relevant specialists.
I am available to you for two weeks by email or text to offer advice, answer questions (that wouldn’t require a visit), and to be your biggest cheerleader! Request VisitFollow Up Support
Depending on needs, follow up visits will be virtual or in-person.

If you’re not sure if this is for you, reach out and we can work together to figure it out!

I am not currently able to accept insurance, but upon request, can provide a superbill for potential reimbursement with your insurance. If you are interested in potential reimbursement, I urge you to reach out to your insurance company prior to our visit, to confirm if they will reimburse you.
