Howdy!

It's simple - you have questions, I have answers. I've been doing this work for over 25 years. I know babies & I know new parents. And I love helping new parents find their stride.

Let's work together!

Scroll down for fees! I work w/2 basic fee structures - a single "initial" visit, which is more extensive and thorough, including your birth story and health history. And then ... there's basically everything else, at a flat hourly rate.  Call or text me! Let me know what you need. We'll work it out together.

​

  • best breastfeeding practices

  • nipple pain

  • engorgement

  • milk supply

  • latch correction

  • bottle feeding

  • formula questions

  • introducing solid food

  • sleep (yes, SLEEP! A non-CIO  based approach to creating sleep strategies and goals that work for the whole family.

  • pregnant? Prenatal breastfeeding & Newborn classes

Easy Accessible Care

Meeting you where you're at .... it's that simple. Except for an initial visit for a comprehensive lactation consult, it's a single flat fee, whatever your issue is. Use the time how you need.​

​

  • Initial Home Visit: This visit is for a thorough lactation consult for newborns, persistent issues and problems, getting off to a good start. Consists of full clinical lactation intake, weighted feeds, problem solving and goal setting. It generally lasts 2 hours: $325

  • Hourly Rate: This visit can be for any issues that are shorter info sessions, or follow ups from an initial visit. Have a question about pumping? Concerns about milk supply? Wondering about solid foods? Wanting to wean at night for an older baby? Let's talk! $150

  • Telehealth, Virtual: Some visits don't require hands on, in person care. Many questions can be answered via a Facetime call. Get the help you need while staying comfy at home. $150/hour

  • Sleep Support: Perhaps you're looking for new ways to think about sleep, night time parenting and ways you might change things up. I offer a 20 bullet point "questionnaire" that will help you focus what works and what doesn't. I send you the questionnaire in advance, you fill it out, and w/an hourly rate we review and go over. I do not believe in crying it out! I do believe there are tools and strategies that can make nighttime more restful and provide improved sleep for ALL family members.  $150/hour

  • Pump Use, Fitting & Bottle Feeding: If you're looking for help knowing if your pump is working for you, introducing bottles & best practices for paced bottle feeding this is for you. $150/hour

  • Postpartum Care: I worked for 20 years as a birth and postpartum doula. And while I don't go to births any more, or contract for long packages, I do offer single day & short contract postpartum care packages -  one (or split over two)  days, 5 hours, spent with you mentoring and providing you comfort during your immediate newborn days. This is a great gift for new families who just want a day or two help in adjusting to life with new baby. Breast & bottle feeding guidance, nursery and feeding station set ups, swaddling & holding baby in different positions, bathing, guppy hold & massage for helping with gas & digestion, pump fitting. I'm happy to negotiate a specific visit to meet your needs.  5 hour package: $650

  • FREE phone consult to see what  kind of visit would work best for you.

​

Cash, Venmo, Zelle accepted. Full payment expected at time of consult. 

What about Insurance? I do not participate with any insurance plans. It is up to you to inquire in advance with your insurance provider what they will or will not cover. I can provide you with a simple "paid" receipt, which may or may not be reimbursed. 

About Certification: I consider myself "retired" from buying in to lactation certification. I am not currently affiliated with any one lactation institute. After 25 years of doing this work, I continue my education by going to trainings and workshops. I have held over four LC certifications, including IBCLC, La Leche League Leader, LC, CLC and RiverDoula Lactation Support. Happy to talk about LC certification pathways if you're interested in this career.  

Cancellation Policy? I require 24 hour notice for cancellations, otherwise a $50 cancellation fee will be billed.
