Please contact me for expert lactation and breastfeeding support. I conduct prenatal consultations with expectant mothers in their third trimester to discuss feeding objectives and relevant health histories. Follow-up meetings are recommended within the first week postpartum to evaluate latch and milk production, addressing any concerns that arise. My areas of expertise include managing low milk production, tongue and lip tie correction, and prenatal lactation education. I provide personalized services in the comfort of clients' homes within a 1-hour drive from Hartsville, Tennessee, or in my home office.
I offer prenatal breast-feeding education that is one on one, tailored to your individual needs and goals. I offer postpartum lactation consults including Painful Latch, positioning struggles, low milk production, starting solid foods, back to work, and weaning. I offer in-home, in office or virtual visits.

The best LC you could ask for!! She listened to all my concerns and answered all my questions with positivity! She also helped me recently make a plan for exclusively pumping cause my little guy is tiny bit lazy with eating at breast lol. She’s been a big help so far and even found my babys tongue tie! Definitely recommend her if you’re in her area!!

Leah is amazing! Soooo knowledgeable! She helped my wife and I through each step of our lactation journey! From how to latch, to body positioning for momma and baby, to frequency, to sleeping, to how husbands can best support. She went over EVERYTHING! She is such a great resource and have no clue how we could have gotten through this without her. She came to house for our visits which really made a huge difference because she could really advise us on places in our house to feed and best props to use to help out. She is the best!

Leah is personable, educated in her field, and extremely communicative. She helped me with nursing, pumping, and weaning and was never judgmental toward any decision I made. She helped me bond with, feed and understand my baby. I'm so grateful for her knowledge and kindness along the way. I highly recommend reaching out to her for lactation help.

Leah was a true lifesaver with my breastfeeding journey! Coming out of the hospital, I was lost and defeated with breastfeeding. His latch was all wrong and I had blisters on both nipples (all of this was due to lack of teaching at the hospital sadly). But the day after I came home from the hospital, I had my first meeting with Leah and it changed everything. She was so patient and understanding through it all. She was very knowledgeable about all things breastfeeding while figuring out my baby had a tongue tie along with recommending my baby to a chiropractor that has helped him tremendously with his colic. Anytime I had a question, she would reply almost immediately. She took so much weight and stress off my shoulders. I know without Leah, I would have quit breastfeeding after the first week. I will forever be grateful for her.
