Heather was attentive, kind, caring, respectful, and professional throughout the appointments I had with her. The fact she does at home visits was such a blessing because especially after having a baby, it’s not easy to get up and go somewhere. I appreciated how easy she made the process to apply, schedule, and track the appointment notes altogether (as well any suggestions). I felt comfortable and I learned a lot from her. You can definitely tell she has years of experience and loves what she does! She is also Team Mom and Baby, so she will side on what’s best for Mom and Baby to ensure you have the best breastfeeding experience with your little one. She also is great at following up with you and being available when you need help. She never made me feel bad about asking so many questions (LOL). As a matter of fact, she welcomed all the questions to ensure I was comfortable and confident when it came to breastfeeding my baby. Thank you Heather! My family and I appreciate you and cherish you for helping make our new chapter enjoyable and welcoming!!

Hello, friends! My name is Diba and I'm a registered nurse, lactation consultant (IBCLC), and the founder of My Pure Delivery Lactation Clinics in Cedar Park and Plano, TX. Caring for babies and mamas is what I do…it’s my passion…and I want to share this passion with every family that I can reach! I opened the first My Pure Delivery clinic in 2016, and the second in 2021. Our team of lactation consultants share my passion for helping families, and train extensively to ensure that as My Pure Delivery grows, we continue to meet the high standard of care on which our reputation has been built. Your goals are our goals, and we are here to support you however you need us along your infant feeding journey.

Recent review

I cannot recommend My Pure Delivery highly enough. From my very first phone call to schedule an appointment, the entire process—including insurance—was handled seamlessly by their team. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and supportive. At my first appointment with Noah and Claudette, my baby boy was five weeks old and struggling to latch. My goal was to exclusively breastfeed, and I was feeling overwhelmed. The team provided exceptional guidance, including helping me determine the correct flange size for pumping to increase my milk supply. With a personalized care plan thoughtfully designed by Claudette and Becca, and after four visits, my baby was finally able to latch successfully. I was in tears the first time it happened. At the time, my baby had been losing weight as I transitioned from formula feeding to exclusive breastfeeding. Throughout the entire process, their team closely monitored his progress with regular weight checks to ensure he was gaining appropriately. I would especially like to thank Claudette for her kindness and encouragement. Her reassuring words gave me the confidence I needed, and I am now successfully breastfeeding without any drop in supply. With the right team and the right guidance, breastfeeding truly can feel achievable and even easy. I am incredibly grateful for the support I received. Thank you so much—I sincerely hope Claudette sees this review.

Denisse Mejia

Accepts insurance

Hi, I’m Denisse Mejia, an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), mom of two girls, and founder of Texas Breastfeeding Center. My connection to lactation began long before it became my career—I grew up watching and learning from my mother, who was also a lactation consultant, and later experienced motherhood and breastfeeding for myself. Those experiences shaped the way I care for families today: with compassion, curiosity, and an understanding that feeding a baby is about so much more than simply getting a “good latch.” My philosophy is that families deserve evidence-based information without judgment or pressure. There is no one-size-fits-all version of breastfeeding, postpartum, or parenthood, so I meet parents where they are and help them make informed decisions that feel sustainable for their family. I’m especially passionate about creating a space where parents feel heard, respected, and confident asking questions—whether we’re working through breastfeeding, pumping, bottle feeding, oral function concerns, or simply figuring out what life with a new baby looks like. As a bilingual English- and Spanish-speaking IBCLC, I’m also deeply committed to making quality lactation care feel accessible and culturally responsive for the families I serve.

Recent review

Denisse has been an incredible support throughout my breastfeeding journey with my baby girl. My baby was having a hard time latching, and she patiently helped us until she was feeding well. I also had a painful clogged milk duct, and she helped relieve it with massage and milk expression, which brought me immediate relief. Beyond breastfeeding, she was a huge source of emotional support during my postpartum period and always made me feel heard and encouraged. She helped me choose the correct flange size for my pump, explained how to use all the pump parts properly, and answered every question I had. She is extremely knowledgeable, caring, and always just a phone call away. Her home visits were so convenient, and she truly goes above and beyond for both mom and baby. I highly recommend her to every new mom looking for compassionate, expert lactation support.

Christina was amazing! I was feeling so discouraged with my breastfeeding journey after having mastitis a few times and she was able to help me pinpoint what the causes might be. After meeting with her and following her suggestions i have been mastitis free and truly enjoying my breastfeeding journey. Christina is so knowledgeable, personable, and caring. She took her time with me and baby and made sure all my questions/concerns were addressed. I immediately felt comfortable with her and would use her services again! I highly recommend her!!

I worked with Amber several time when nursing my twins. She was extremely sweet and made me feel like I was talking to a good friend. She was very knowledgeable but also extremely approachable, very different than the hospital IBCLC. She really helped me feel like I was doing well as a mother and her care and support helped me be able to exclusively breastfeeding my twins for the first 10 months of their lives.

Breastfeeding is a learning process for both mother and baby, and having the guidance of a professional like Carolina was key to our success. With her guidance, any mother can feel confident about the well-being and happiness of both herself and her baby. We know that when a baby is happy, the whole family is happy. That is why I would like to thank Carolina for ensuring that I was able to breastfeed my son right from the moment of his birth. Thank you for your loving and confident professional guidance, for your kindness and patience with us, and for encouraging and motivating me during the most difficult times—of which there were many. Thanks to this professional—who loves what she does and is constantly staying up-to-date—my son is protected today because he is fed exclusively on my breast milk. He is gaining weight properly, and breastfeeding has become a unique time of affection and joy for both of us.

Neena was a lifesaver for me and my baby! I was struggling with latching and not making enough milk for my baby. Neena patiently worked with me and my baby until I was confident with latching and helped me boost my milk supply. She also has an online library of videos which she gave me access to so I could learn more about breastfeeding and pumping in my free time. I really liked the videos on pumping and would watch them while feeding at night. Even though Neena gave me some sleep training tips during our time together, I am looking forward to working with her when I am ready to tackle sleep training. I couldn’t have asked for better support—she’s truly amazing!

Laura was simply incredible. She helped me with my third baby, when I thought I had things figured out. He was born with pretty severe tongue and lip ties, and had a hard time breastfeeding. Laura was extremely responsive, knowledgeable and kind. She was personable and compassionate, and walked the line between being a friend and being a professional. Laura helped us navigate a frenectomy, projectile vomiting, overproduction, and lots of emotions. We loved her, and cannot recommend her highly enough!

Katelyn Kleiber

Accepts insurance

Katelyn Kleiber, IBCLC, RLC, began working with breastfeeding families as a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist and lactation intern before becoming an IBCLC in 2022. Her interest in lactation grew from a longstanding interest in women’s health and the need for better support during the postpartum period. Katelyn views feeding as a relationship between parent and baby rather than a single technical skill. She considers both sides of the feeding pair, works with families to identify the factors making feeding more difficult, and develops plans that are practical and sustainable at home. A particular focus of Katelyn’s practice is the connection between feeding and sleep as babies grow. She enjoys helping families better understand how feeding patterns, development, sleep, and a parent’s own rest can affect one another. Through sleep consultations, she works with families to find realistic approaches that support both baby’s needs and the well-being of the parent. Katelyn values long-term care and the opportunity to support families as their needs change throughout infancy and beyond. Her approach is thoughtful, individualized, and centered on helping families feel informed and confident as they navigate both feeding and sleep. Katelyn currently offers virtual consultations as well as home visits in the Bryan and College Station area. Outside of work, Katelyn enjoys traveling, reading, hiking, and spending time in nature.
