Service introduction

Consultation types include: prenatal, postpartum, pump flange fittings, back to work preparation, weight checks, tongue and lip tie release preparation, and wound checks. Most visits take place in my office in St. Charles, easily reached from 70, 270, 370, or 141. In certain cases, a telehealth visit may be appropriate. Home visits are sometimes accommodated for the first visit only and if baby is less than 4 weeks old but a travel fee will apply. Consultations typically include: breast exam for mom, oral exam for baby, assessment of baby's feeding reflexes, weight check for baby, and as needed, a pump flange fitting.

Johanna is an amazing lactation consultant! I met with her before the birth of my first baby to determine a plan for reaching my breastfeeding goals. Two days after he was born we started to struggle and Johanna was always there with support and guidance. I don’t think we would have made it to this point (8 mo) without her support. I recommend lactation support to all new breastfeeding individuals and I highly recommend Johanna specifically.
