Cat Halek IBCLC Lactation Consultant in North Potomac, MD
About Cat
HI my name is Cat, and I'm all about helping families reduce stress when it comes to lactation, infant feeding, and sleep. With over 13 years of experience in breastfeeding support, I'm deeply passionate about helping families navigate these crucial areas with confidence and ease. My background in mental health has taught me the importance of sleep for both parents and babies. I prioritize creating routines that support overall well-being. It's truly an honor for me every time a family puts their trust in my support. I understand that every family is unique, and I'm excited about the opportunity to tailor my assistance to your specific needs. Looking forward to being there for you on your parenting journey!
Lactation Consultant packages and pricing
Feeding evaluation with sleep plan
Unsure if you're ready for sleep encouragement or concerned about your baby's nighttime feeding?

This package includes: Initial intake appointment to assess your baby's feeding patterns and readiness for sleep coaching. Development of a personalized sleep plan. Support for implementing the sleep plan through text and email during 8 am to 8 pm for one week. Follow-up feeding assessment to ensure your baby's well-being.
