T'errah Jessup - Lactation Consultant

About T'errah

Hi, my name is T'Errah and I am what I like to call a whole mama and baby IBCLC. I like to consider all aspects of the dyad from physical, mental and emotional viewpoints. I am passionate about maternal health and I strive to be my best in service to the families I serve. My business "helps you to meet your infant feeding goals" and we do that by ensuring that you are seen, heard, and supported with adequate lactation care.

T’Errah is a dedicated, compassionate and caring LC. She has a heart for mamas and their babies. T’Errah has helped me and supported me along the way for five years now as a mom of two. She’s been the best advocate for my breast feeding journeys as well as my postpartum journeys. I would recommend T’Errah to everyone that I can! If you are planning to be pregnant, if your already expecting or if your just in the process of overcoming postpartum care then T’Errah is the one for you. 10/10 recommend her and her services.

Frequently asked questions

Do you accept insurance?

Yes! I have currently in-network with Aetna and Tricare. I am two other insurances in-the-works and will update this portal once officially in. We also provide superbills to all self-paying clients who can submit the superbill to their insurance company for possible reimbursement. Feel free to email us prior to booking.

How long have you been an IBCLC and what are your skills?

I became certified in December 2020. I started my career in lactation within a Level IV NICU, which is one of the most high acuity, skilled NICU settings. During my time there I was able to assist 1000's of families into breastfeeding success through education, assessment, promotion and protection. I am skilled in tethered oral ties, multiples, exclusive pumping, sore nipples, difficult latching, breast issues like engorgement, clogged ducts, mastitis and more. Some of my other skills involve teaching lactation, prenatal education, creating individualized feeding plans and ensuring that you are seen/heard.
