Katie Rhodes Lactation Consultant in Black Diamond, WA
About Katie
Hi! My name is Katie Rhodes. I am an RN and IBCLC (international board certified lactation consultant). I have been an IBCLC for 5 years. Previous to receiving my certification, I was a postpartum nurse for 6 years. I specialize in creating tailor- made feeding plans for the families I work with. Every mother-baby dyad is unique which is why it can be so important to have a lactation consultant that can come up with a feeding plan that works best for you. I strive to meet your goals and am constantly checking in to ensure the plan we develop is working for you. I have much experience in but not limited to, pain with latch, low milk supply, breast refusal, bottle refusal, tongue tie, weaning and so much more. In my spare time I love to be with my daughters.

Home Visit
In a home visit, we will discuss questions, concerns, health and delivery history for mother and baby. We will also perform a weighted feeding, weighting baby both before and after a breastfeed to assess how much milk they transfer. Once this is complete, we will develop a plan of care and follow up as needed. Message support offered as needed. Each visit is typically 60-75 minutes.
Virtual Consult
In a virtual visit we will discuss your primary questions and concerns along with mother and baby’s health and delivery history. We will review all questions and concerns together and develop a plan of care that is manageable for you and your family. Visit is typically 60 minutes, price adjustment if less.
Prenatal Virtual Visit
Set yourself up for success by scheduling a one-on-one prenatal lactation visit. In this visit we will review general breastfeeding education, what to expect once baby is born, “what if” scenarios as well as any specific questions or concerns you may have. This visit is ideal for first time parents and or if you had any difficulty feeding previously. This visit is typically 30 minutes.
