Breastfeeding Support

Breastfeeding provides essential nutrition for infants birth to one year and older. As with learning anything new, most breastfeeding mothers and babies (and dads too!) need some instruction and support during this learning period.

That's Where We Come In!

We will do our best to help you meet your breastfeeding goals.


We respect each family's feeding decisions. We do encourage moms to breastfeed exclusively or give only breastmilk for the first four-six months then continue to breastfeed and give solid foods until you and your baby are ready to wean.


We love babies and enjoy helping families learn how to breastfeed! We will help you as little or as much as you need. We provide in-office feeding evaluations for hands-on help as well as phone support for any questions you may have along your breastfeeding journey.

Some areas we can provide guidance include:

  • Positioning your baby at the breast
  • Latching
  • Caring for your breasts and nipples
  • Assessing milk transfer
  • Assuring adequate nutrition
  • Storing milk
  • Returning to work/school while breastfeeding
  • Traveling and breastfeeding
  • Training a breastfeeding baby to a bottle
  • Teething while breastfeeding
  • Breastfeeding premature babies
  • Managing slow weight gain babies
  • Breastfeeding twins
  • Managing medications, medical tests or surgery while breastfeeding
