The cost of a lactation consultant in Trenton, NJ can be influenced by several factors:

  • Type of Certification

    International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLCs) typically charge more than Certified Lactation Counselors (CLCs) due to their advanced training and ability to handle complex breastfeeding issues.

  • Visit Type

    In-home visits generally cost more than office visits or virtual consultations. Many consultants in Trenton offer telehealth options at reduced rates.

  • Insurance Coverage

    Insurance coverage for lactation consultant services in Trenton, NJ, depends on your specific insurance plan. Under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), most health insurance plans are required to cover breastfeeding support, counseling, and equipment, which may include lactation consultant services, without cost-sharing. However, coverage details can vary, so it is important to check with your insurance provider to confirm if lactation consultant services are covered, whether you need to use an in-network provider, and if pre-authorization is required. Additionally, Medicaid in New Jersey may cover lactation support, so you should contact your Medicaid provider for more information.

  • Number of Sessions

    Some consultants offer package deals for multiple sessions, which can be more cost-effective than paying per visit, especially for ongoing breastfeeding challenges.

  • HSA and FSA Eligibility

    Lactation consulting is an IRS-eligible medical expense, meaning you can use HSA or FSA funds to cover the cost without paying taxes on those dollars.

  • Experience and Specialization

    Consultants with specialized expertise in areas like tongue ties, premature infant feeding, or relactation may charge higher rates.

When looking for a lactation consultant in Trenton, NJ, it's a good idea to check with your insurance provider first, as many plans cover lactation services. Interview several consultants to find one who fits your needs and budget, and ask about their specific credentials, experience, and what each session includes.

I am really passionate about educating parents on their pregnancy & birth, and the transformative nature it bestows. Along the way, the satisfaction and security I offer you through evidence based, intuitively honoring care allows for your choiceful, educated decisions which Mom’s & Parents have said offer them empowering and joyful experiences. Promises I make to you: You are the power and authority, no one else. Sounds scary, but I’ll show you how to wield your power with purpose like never before. With the right team, you CAN have the birth experience you desire. I’ll give you the secrets to ensuring this. Your baby’s birth is the most vibrant and impactful experience of YOUR life. Let me support you in making it the most exciting next step towards the rest of your life. Finally, but most importantly, I am here to ensure, above all, you will be heard. My intention is to support and guide every family so that they are; fully prepared, anchored in their heart & soul and genuinely (and I mean genuinely) excited to welcome their precious baby so that they can have the birth experience they truly deserve, without reservation and unapologetically, it’s that simple! Thank you for for being here and exploring how I can support your growing Tribe®️ Love, Renée

I will try to put into words the feelings I have, in an attempt to express my gratitude to Renée. Firstly, I would not have been successful without her. She believed in me, my body, my ability even when I questioned it. She knew what to do at every step- from our first conversation to the leading up to the birth, to actual birth & right after. Thank you for helping me at home as well. You just knew exactly what to do & coached me through it in a kind, gentle way (even when others were nervous you knew how to handle them too ;). Knew what to do to progress labor and when to move to hospital. I don’t know how Renée remained so present with me during the hospital delivery. A million people screaming at me- I focused on what she said. She just knew. 30 mins in L&D and baby was here. This was thanks to her cues. I would not have known what was happening without the cues Renée taught me. And after birth, helping us with immediate nursing & taking pictures!

I’ve been working with childbearing families in northern New Jersey for many years, and I strive to bring the knowledge and experience I’ve gained to each of my clients. My great joy is helping people find their own path, and trying to make it more comfy along the way.

When I contacted Britt, I was 12 weeks pregnant with my first baby. I really desired to have a relationship with my doctor, but since most OBGYN practices have you seeing multiple professionals, I was not getting that. I was desiring to go the natural birth-in-a-hospital route and hearing other friends’ stories, a doula sounded like the perfect fit. Britt was recommended by one of my friends who had Britt attend and help at all three of her babies’ births. Britt offered us a birthing course in our home, she gave us literature and resources to use an practice as we anticipated our first birth, she was ALWAYS responsive when texted or called, was informed about alternatives such as the Fresh Test, and she was a great help and encouragement to my husband pre-birth, during labor and delivery and after birth. Britt knew what I wanted - when we got to the hospital and we were almost put into a room without a tub, she was there ADVOCATING for us (since a tub room was available and it was my hope to labor in one). Britt is levelheaded, intelligent, witty, and has an excellent sense of humor. She tells it like it is. She is loving and compassionate - truly a gift from heaven. She checked in on me all throughout my pregnancy and after my baby was born. As she put it to me, “Once your doula, always your doula.” To put it simply, hire Britt as your doula. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Here's a professional bio you can use for networking groups, your website, speaking events, or referral introductions: My name is Tamari Soosi, and I am the founder of Doda Doula (dodadoula.org). I am a birth doula, postpartum doula, childbirth educator, and lactation support professional dedicated to helping families feel informed, supported, and confident throughout pregnancy, birth, postpartum recovery, and infant feeding. My passion for birth work began through my love of supporting families and caring for children. Over the years, I realized I wanted to provide deeper support during the transition into parenthood, which led me to pursue professional training in birth support, childbirth education, postpartum care, and lactation. I continue to expand my knowledge through ongoing education in trauma-informed care and women's health. As a doula, I believe every family deserves evidence-based information, compassionate support, and the opportunity to make informed decisions that align with their values and goals. I am especially passionate about helping families build confidence, reduce fear, navigate challenges, and feel empowered throughout their parenting journey. My skills include emotional and physical labor support, comfort measures, birth planning, partner preparation, advocacy, postpartum recovery support, newborn care education, breastfeeding and feeding guidance, and creating a calm, nonjudgmental space where families feel heard and respected. My approach is warm, honest, trauma-informed, and centered on meeting each family where they are. Through Doda Doula, my goal is to ensure that no parent feels alone as they navigate one of life's most meaningful transitions. 🤍

I am so excited to meet you! I am a graduate from Brooklyn College (go bulldogs) with a Health and Nutrition degree. I love cheesy fiction books (don't Judge). They just give me an escape from the chaos of this world. The birthing world has always been a passion of mine, and being a part of the support system for any birthing person through education, breathing exercises, comfort and relaxation techniques and aromatherapy is what I enjoy most. I spend most days reading through evidence based research on birth, postpartum and breastfeeding to be well equipped support person for my clients. My clients are my number one priority and they have my unconditional support. I see each pregnancy as a unique miracle.I help women embark on their birthing journey gently through tested and proven methods. I also patiently answer questions and address concerns you may have and provide advice best suited to your situation. Please get in touch to set up an initial consultation. I look forward to meeting you, and always remember you are stronger than you think.

Geeta supported our family as an overnight doula during the first few weeks of our daughter’s life, and having her in our home was such a relief and a pleasure. She not only made us feel more confident as parents, but took time to check in on my own recovery in addition to caring for our daughter. She was an absolute pleasure to work with!
