Hi there, I'm Melyssa Miller! As a mother of three and a local to Lake Wylie, South Carolina, I understand first hand the joys and challenges that come with breastfeeding. I'm a certified International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) dedicated to supporting families in York County, SC, Charlotte, NC, and surrounding areas. I offer Telehealth lactation consults nationwide. Whether you're navigating newborn latching, supply concerns, pumping, or anything in between, Im here to provide expert, compassionate care tailored to your unique journey. I believe every parent deserves a calm, encouraging, and nonjudgmental space to meet their feeding goals-whatever those may look like for you and your little one. I proudly welcome all individuals and families, and I accept a wide variety of insurance plans to help make lactation care more accessible. Let's work together to create a positive and empowering breastfeeding experience for you and your baby.

I have been a newborn nurse for 11 years and a lactation specialist for 5 years. I have 3 children that I breastfed myself, but didn’t learn about all that goes into nursing and the amazing science behind it, or the massive benefits of breastfeeding, until I decided to become a Lactation Consultant in 2020.I love helping moms reach their breastfeeding goals and giving them and their children an outcome that works for both of them.

Hope became an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) in 2017, completed her PhD in nutritional biochemistry in May 2018, and became a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) in September 2020. In addition to owning and operating Hope Feeds Families, Hope is employed full time at Winthrop University in the Department of Human Nutrition running a research lab that focuses on helping mothers to reach their infant feeding goals, improving access to human milk, and analyzing the nutritional content of human milk. As an IBCLC, Hope has a passion for connecting with mothers to help them to reach their individual feeding goals and advocacy for maternal health. As an RDN, Hope loves to support parents in feeding their children, whether that is traditional solids, baby-led weaning, or blenderized tube feeds.
