What to expect during your visit

How can a CLC help me?

My number one priority is to help you and your baby – as each mother/baby pair is unique! We can have a quick chat over the phone to identify your pressing concerns and follow up with an in-home visit and full breastfeeding assessment at your convenience. Appointments usually last 1-2 hours so a full feeding can be evaluated. We can weigh your baby before/after feeding to ensure proper milk transfer and during this time you can ask me as many questions as you like! Write them down so you don’t forget! I will leave you with a summary of what we discussed and follow up a few days later to check in on your progress and answer any remaining questions.

As a CLC (Certified Lactation Counselor), I can assist and help with the following:

“I offer more than just breastfeeding support! I will listen to your goals & provide judgement-free options for achieving your ideal experience.”
  • Milk supply issues (Low or Oversupply)
  • Latch assessment for improving adequate milk transfer
  • Nipple pain or soreness
  • Breastmilk storage & handling
