Services Include: Prenatal Education | Breastfeeding | Chestfeeding | Pumping | Bottle Feeding | Milk Supply Management | Coping with Perinatal Mood Disorders | Return to Work Prep | Introducing Solids | Weaning Lactation visits are tailored to meet your unique feeding goals. In-home visits may include comprehensive maternal and infant assessments, latch & positioning support, pre and post feed weight check, pump assessment and optimization, bottle feeding guidance, and lactation education + resources. A personalized care plan is provided with each visit along with two weeks of email support. Virtual visits are great for follow-up care to address questions or concerns, and educational needs, i.e., return to work prep or introducing solids.
Lana is the best! She has been my lactation consultant since 2 weeks post partum and continues to offer support as I am about to return to work. She is very knowledgeable and patient. She sends notes after each visit and is always caring and open to adapting our feeding plan. I highly recommend Lana.
