Individual Visit Lactation Care for Growing Families ​

Our International Board Certified Lactation Consultants are committed to providing you with the highest level of expert feeding support while balancing the needs of baby with the well being of the mama/nursing parent.

 

Our  individual lactation visits are limited in availability, as we give schedule priority to Fern Foundations and SOS Rescue families. Similar to an OB appointment, this level of support happens within the appointment time. For ongoing  more comprehensive support between appointments, please see our packages.

Feeding the Baby

Bottle feeding doesn't always go as planned. We can help to identify why your baby is struggling and guide you in how to help your baby build their feeding skills. You do not have to be breast/chestfeeding or lactating, all babies struggling with bottles are welcome!

Mothers and their Baby

No matter what route your baby feeding journey has taken you on, if providing your milk has been part of it, there will come a time when that chapter is over. 

No matter when this chapter is closing for you, we want to support you through this logistical and sometimes emotional transition!
