There you’ll find a list of insurances we are in-network with, along with others that we may be able to bill, and instructions on how to submit your superbill if we cannot directly bill your insurance. If you have additional questions, feel free to reach out! We’ll navigate the process together :)

Consult visits usually last 1.5 hours. We start with you telling me a little about your pregnancy and birth and the first days and weeks (or months) of your breastfeeding experience up to that point. Then we usually weigh the baby, latch the baby, then weigh again to see how much milk they consumed. I will watch the way baby gets onto the breast and offer suggestions to latch/positioning if it hurts your nipple or baby doesn’t seem comfortable/happy. I will also do an infant oral assessment and make referrals as needed. After we work on getting things right for both of you, we go over questions and concerns and I leave you with a written Plan of Care (which I fax to your doctors along with my Breastfeeding Assessment) and we stay in touch as much as needed via email/phone. You can also schedule a follow up appointment for a discounted fee if we need to see each other again. We can also save time for pumping questions and a breastshield fitting (to make sure your breastshield fits you well for pumping). Allow baby to be hungry for the consultation time. You can feed them a small snack if they can’t wait, but just don’t give a FULL feeding within 1.5-2 hours of your appointment...otherwise they won't latch for us because they are full :( Invite your favorite support person (your partner or mom/friend/doula) if desired. Write down a list of questions you’d like addressed so we don't forget anything in the moment. Have nearby any breastfeeding aids you’ve been using (nipple shield, nipple everter, supplemental nursing system, name/dosage of herbs or other medications, etc.). A record of your last 1-2 days of feeding and diaper charting (if too sleep deprived, don’t worry about this one).

Consider a private lactation consultation if you're in pain, your baby struggles with latching, weight gain is slow, or something feels "off." It's also helpful if you're dealing with medical issues, a history of breast surgery, supply concerns, or challenges with pumping. Heading back to work? We can help with that too. Let's work together to make breastfeeding a satisfying experience for you and your baby!
