Find a Lactation Consultant Near Me that Accepts Anthem Blue Cross

Hiring an overnight doula from Peaceful Passages was one of the best decisions I made for my postpartum recovery. Not only did my doula lovingly care for me and my newborn, she went above and beyond—prepping nourishing meals, providing breastfeeding support, organizing the baby’s nursery, and even helping with my twin toddlers so I could rest. Her calm, professional presence made my healing after a c-section so much easier. I was especially impressed by how seamless everything was—she was professionally dressed, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable. On top of that, Peaceful Passages accepted my Carrot insurance and handled all the billing with ease, which lifted such a burden off my shoulders. This service was truly a lifesaver for me and my family. I felt cared for, supported, and able to focus on bonding with my baby. I can’t recommend their overnight doula services enough!

The best LC you could ask for!! She listened to all my concerns and answered all my questions with positivity! She also helped me recently make a plan for exclusively pumping cause my little guy is tiny bit lazy with eating at breast lol. She’s been a big help so far and even found my babys tongue tie! Definitely recommend her if you’re in her area!!

Karly was an amazing doula and lactation consultant for my wife. She went above and beyond and was crucial in helping my wife feel more confident in breastfeeding before leaving the hospital. She was also a very kind and calming presence during labor. We can't thank her enough.

Having kayla as my doula has truly been one of the best decisions during my pregnancy journey. She has been incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, supportive, and caring every single step of the way. During such an emotional and important time in my life, she has made me feel genuinely cared for, heard, and at peace. One thing I appreciate most is how she never tries to overshadow my wants or opinions. She always makes my choices, comfort, and birth preferences the priority while still guiding and educating me with so much patience and compassion. That balance is so important when choosing a doula, and she does it beautifully. Kayla presence alone brings reassurance, comfort, and confidence, and I truly cannot imagine going through this journey without her support. I would recommend her to any expecting mother looking for someone who will advocate for them, support them, and truly care from the heart. 💕

I don’t have the “typical” testimonial…. Alexa was incredible for me postpartum, I unfortunately experienced a stillbirth of my son, Dallin at 37 wks. Alexa, helped me walk through the process of drying up my milk safely and making sure I was doing my best to care for myself and drinking plenty of water to avoid any problems in the process of drying up my milk. I will never forget her kindness in my darkest days & weeks. HIGHLY recommend Brighter Days Breastfeeding.

Linda is a wonderful resource for Moms hoping to have a healthy breastfeeding experience with their little ones. I am a healthcare provider who sees lots of families, pregnant moms and little ones and I've recommended Linda countless time for help with all things breastfeeding. She even does free classes in my office educating moms on a variety of breastfeeding topics, and I trust her expertise to the fullest!

We had the privilege of having Zoe as our overnight postpartum doula for our second child. It was great having such a warm, friendly, and supportive presence in the house while most of the rest of the folks in the house were asleep. She was a huge help during our struggles with breastfeeding and our daughter's jaundice treatment, as well as with all the baby-related chores that seem small but add up quickly. I could rest assured that Baby was cared for and that I wouldn't wake up to a bin full of used baby bottles and pumping supplies to wash. Even our 3 year old really warmed up to her, even though she was mostly here during his sleeping hours. We felt very well supported and Zoe's visits were the perfect way to reset during the newborn+toddler struggle.

I cannot recommend Michelle highly enough! She was an absolute rock star during the birth of my baby, who arrived 6 weeks early. Through all the uncertainty and stress, Michelle was there every step of the way to keep the calm and peace, offering unwavering support and reassurance. She was a true rock for my family, ensuring I was taken care of and advocating for me throughout the process—especially during the scarier moments when doctors weren’t explaining things clearly. Michelle stepped in to make sure we understood everything. Her compassionate presence made a world of difference. On top of that, she captured beautiful, meaningful pictures when we first brought our baby home from the NICU. I HIGHLY recommend Michelle for anyone looking for a dedicated, kind, and supportive doula.

Parris was my birth doula for my first and only birth so far and I have no reservations recommending her. From the initial consult to prenatal visits to the actual labor and delivery and post partum visit, Parris was attentive, courteous, and patient. Her actions in my delivery room avoided a c-section and her plethora of experience means that she has techniques for anything that might go wrong during your birth. I would go with her again if I have a second baby!

- Laura Y.

Tamika was truly exceptional. From the moment we met, her warmth put me completely at ease. I was struggling with milk production after a traumatic delivery, and breastfeeding felt overwhelming. Tamika stepped in with genuine care—making time for me, even doing home visits, and guiding me every step of the way. She would email me notes on our visits with links to websites to help me better with my pumping and whatever else I needed. She was quick to respond to any queries I had about my new born even if it was not related to breastfeeding. She’s incredibly professional but also brings a friendly, comforting vibe that makes you feel supported and understood. She does this work out of love, and it shows in everything she does. It’s rare to find someone so passionate and committed. Her heart is truly in the right place. I honestly don’t know what I would have done without her help. Highly, highly recommend!

Amanda is the best when it comes to lc (I’ve seen many). She is understanding and emotionally involved every step of the way. Breastfeeding is already a struggle so finding someone who comes from a place of no judgment and respects your needs is important. I recommend Amanda to every mom to be who is looking for the best kind of support.

Sizzly was wonderful. Very knowledgeable and with a lot of experience which made me feel she is very trustworthy and that my home birth was in great hands. Love that she prayed over my baby’s birth and received guidance intuitively from the Lord. She was very encouraging when I needed it most and didn’t hesitate to go the extra mile. If i had to do it all again, I would definitely pick Sizzly as my midwife again. 10/10 recommend for anyone considering a home birth.

Hallelujah!! That’s what I shouted when I was finally able to find Beth! She has been with me through two home births and now takes care of my entire family as our Primary. Her prenatal and Homebirth care were amazing, I always felt listened to. Each visit there was respect and connection! I had a lot of opinions on what I wanted and didn’t want and she talked with me about each of them and never tried to force me to change my mind about anything. Even Vaccines!!! Leading up to my homebirths I was intimidated and spoke to her about that, she was able to point me in the right direction for resources and made great recommendations for my specific fears. When it finally came time to have my babies she was exactly the presence I needed. Hands off but there. My husband and I felt absolutely taken care of and safe. She trusted my body and helped me to trust it to. My sons labor was textbook but my daughters labor was all over the place, 1min contractions followed by 15min breaks or 30sec contractions followed by 1min break. Just all over the place. (I know I would have been given pitocin if I was in a hospital.) I was worried but she reassured me that everything was fine and sure enough my daughter came out in the exact same amount of time it took for my son! I had a 15min rest period between contractions right before the last one that got her out. They were both 6hour labors with drastically different contraction cycles and both ended with beautiful births and healthy babies! I adore her middle of the road approach to health care. She gives amazing advice on things to do for sicknesses and different issues without running to medication. Which is very important for us. Even with ADHD issues she’s given me different things to try that I had never thought of. You kind of only think medication but there’s a whole lot we could do if that’s the route you choose. Having a primary that intimately knows my kids and myself is something I thought wasn’t possible at this day and age. We are so blessed to have found her and I feel completely confident that my kids health is the most important not some agenda! We are blessed to have a Primary we COMPLETELY trust that we can run to!

Leslie is absolutely the best thing that has ever happened to us! I couldn't, or didn't have the same support with my first, as I did with Leslie. She found out daughter had oral ties, when other doctors said she didn't. Leslie came to our home many times, video appointments, and endless texts. It has been 2 years and still going strong. I cannot say enough good things about Leslie. I do wish we had her for our first!

Sarah was such a blessing during my breastfeeding journey. I was really struggling with low milk supply and feeling discouraged, but she met me with so much kindness and compassion. She took the time to really listen, gave me practical advice, and never made me feel like I was failing. Her support gave me the confidence I needed to keep going, and I’m so grateful for her help. If you need lactation support, she’s the one to call!

Amanda saved my breastfeeding journey with both of my children! My first born had an awful latch, causing me so much pain. She helped guide me through options to save my breastfeeding journey and I was able to breastfeed him for 2.5 years. My second born had similar issues as my first, and with Amanda’s help again, we’ve still been able to breastfeed for 19 months. I didn’t sleep train with my first and honestly thought it was not for us, but having a child who hadn’t slept any longer than 3-4 hours in a year, I needed help and was desperate! Her sleep knowledge completely changed my view and gave me hope! She helped get us into a much better sleep routine and I’m happy to say that sleep is 100% better for my child and myself! I recommend her to everyone who needs mama support. I am so thankful for her!

Ivy was the biggest blessing during my postpartum experience! I looked forward to her weekly home visits, knowing she would answer my breastfeeding and pumping questions, all the while exhibiting the kindest and most thoughtful attitude. She was ever-supportive, exceptionally knowledgeable, and dedicated to providing the highest level of care and compassion during a fragile time in my motherhood journey. She made very helpful recommendations regarding my breastfeeding journey and referred out to skilled providers outside her scope of practice, when appropriate. She was never pushy or judgmental and always provided a full picture of options to let me and my husband decide how to proceed. 10/10 would recommend Ivy as a lactation consultant! I will definitely continue to work with her through future pregnancies and postpartum seasons.

Allison was such a blessing for my first pregnancy! She coached me through what to expect with labor/delivery. She shared with me her extensive knowledge which empowered me to advocate with confidence for myself during the process. I felt like I had a voice which was respectfully received by the nurses at the hospital. After delivery, Allison was an amazing resource for breast feeding. Ladies, it’s not easy!!! But with Allison’s encouragement, I did it! She had so many tips and tricks for my little one’s terrible latch, lip tie, and seemingly nonstop cluster feedings. She also helped coach me through transitioning to pumping and breast feeding when I went back to work. I can’t say enough good things about Allison! You won’t be disappointed!

working with Natalie from newborn to over one year has been absolutely invaluable in supporting both me and my baby through the journey of breastfeeding. In those first few days after birth I was at my wits end and in so much pain. She helped me with latch techniques, ensuring my baby was feeding effectively, and addressed any initial challenges like nipple pain, burping and even went over my pump parts to ensure it fit my breast properly. She also educated me on recognizing my baby's feeding cues and offered many solutions for managing issues with my milk production and ensuring my baby was gaining weight. As my baby grew, the consultants continued to guide me through feeding schedules, my transition to working full time and being away from my baby, milk storage, and challenges like teething and growth spurts that sometimes disrupted feeding. She also supported me in transitioning to solid foods when we felt ready and educated me on choking and signs to look for and showing me how to balance breastfeeding with introducing new foods. Throughout the year, her emotional support and expert advice gave me the knowledge and confidence to meet my breastfeeding goals even when I felt this journey was near impossible due to my lack of supply.

After a not so great experience with a lactation nurse at the hospital, I was very hesitant on having someone come into my home. I am so glad I did! Working with Holly has been such a wonderful experience. Her knowledge and support could not have come at a better time for me and my baby. Her positive energy and kind words were just what I needed in such an emotional and vulnerable stage of motherhood. I cannot express the gratitude and love I have for Holly and the wonderful work she does!
