Hello all and welcome to the wonderful world of having a child. I am here to help provide education for you and your family with pre-birth education classes as well as post birth. I am available to support you as a antepartum, postpartum RN as well as an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, IBCLC that specializes in newborn feeding as well as feeding complications. I offer support with in-home consultations, virtual and overnight newborn feeding/post-partum care.

I was born & raised in New York, attended Fordham University at Rose Hill, Bronx NY and Ross University Medical School, where I completed my Pediatrics residency at Flushing Hospital Medical Center, Bronx NY. Although I loved helping children and young adults of all ages, I always gravitated towards newborns. Breastfeeding moms and babies often don't get the care and attention they need to thrive. So after careful consideration, I realized I could have a positive impact on newborns as a Lactation Consultant. As an IBCLC, I am well equipped to provide newborns, moms & their families with comprehensive breastfeeding support services, while still working in medical field.

I am a lactation consultant (IBCLC) and RN who has worked in the mother-baby world since 1994. I have a very varied background spanning the hospital, pediatric offices, home visiting, WIC, and telehealth. For almost 30 years I've helped families from 1 hour old to 1+ year old, and look forward to helping you figure out your path forward with breastfeeding and/or pumping.

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.

Hi there! I'm Rebekah Niesen, and I became a Certified Birth Doula and Certified Lactation Counselor after birthing 4 kids and breastfeeding them all. I firmly believe that labor support, both emotional and physical, has an incredibly positive effect on labor outcomes, health of mother and baby, even bonding of your new family. My background includes the various fields of a degree in Microbiology and my first job which was to mentor college students, uniting my interests of research with communication and coaching. I have applied this to being a birth doula and lactation counselor, educating the family in evidence-based best practice to cultivate advocacy empowerment and how it pertains to each individual situation. When I am not serving others, you can find me walking the dog, reading a good book, accompanying my average singing with my average guitar playing, or playing board games with my husband and kids. I take Tricare insurance and can work with you if your insurance covers family services.

I am a small town Christian girl who has a lived Andale Kansas all my life.

While working in the NICU I found my passion for helping breastfeeding mothers. So I decided to study to become a Lactation Consultant. This allowed me to provide the best care for mothers and babies struggling with lactation issues. I absolutely LOVE being able to assist mothers initiate breastfeeding with their babies in the hospital setting. But I know when you leave the hospital some new challenges may arise. When the nurses and Lactation Consultants can’t be at your bedside, who do you call? Well I am here to help!

I accept several insurance plans and offer sliding scale pricing for out of network clients. Unique from other IBCLCs and sleep consultants, I work with families to help understand & address the root cause of their baby's night wakings without ANY form of separation-based sleep training. My approach centers attachment and is informed by neuroscience & infant brain development, as well as biological feeding norms. Because I specialized training in lactation care, oral function, and nutrition, I have helped hundreds of families identify missed (or dismissed) issues affecting sleep and improve their child's health & well-being for life.

Hi! I'm Ali and am happy to meet you! Drawing from my own personal encounters with breastfeeding, I've poured my heart into guiding mamas like you. As an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), I can't emphasize enough the importance of understanding and support during this journey. When I think about my four kiddos and the challenges I faced with tongue and lip ties, it fills me with a fiery passion to make sure no momma feels alone in her breastfeeding quest. Embracing a holistic perspective, I firmly believe that the magic lies in wholehearted guidance, not just ticking off checklists. Having had the privilege of serving as a Mother/Baby nurse at St. Luke's the Woodlands Hospital and being a part of the amazing Texas Children’s Hospital team in the Houston Medical Center, I've witnessed the immense strength and resilience of mothers and their babies. Whether it's the NICU or an outpatient clinic, every mom and babe have a unique story, and I cherish being a part of it. Always learning, always growing, I'm active with the Houston Area Lactation Consultants and Educators Association (HALCEA), because there’s always something new on the horizon. But let me tell you, nothing compares to the joy of seeing new mothers discover their strength, trusting their instincts, and flourishing in their breastfeeding goals. When I’m not in my professional shoes, I’m fully immersed in the joy of homeschooling my children and being active in our church community. And speaking of communities, BCB feels like home. The kind of warmth and support I've felt here, especially during some challenging times, is what you'd expect from close-knit family. Working with clients and building relationships with some of the finest providers has been the cherry on top. So, let's do this together, y'all! Lean on my experience, my holistic approach, and my genuine wish to see you thrive in your breastfeeding journey. Here’s to new adventures and creating cherished memories! 💙

Hi! I am an IBCLC and speech language pathologist with over a decade of experience helping infants feed successfully and safely as well as helping parents feel more confident feeding their babies.

I would be honored to be part of your breastfeeding story

Hey there, I'm Megan Taylor. Let me give you a peek into who I am and what I'm all about. My journey into lactation support and doula work has been a blend of personal experience and professional dedication. After witnessing the challenges many new mothers face with breastfeeding, both through my own journey and while serving families as a doula, I realized the critical need for better support systems, especially here in San Antonio. I am an IBCLC, birth and postpartum doula, and Certified Childbirth Educator. I have specific training in Low Milk Supply and Reflex-based Oral Function. I'm also proud to hold certifications as a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist, and Certified Childbirth Educator. What drives me in this work is the opportunity to meet families where they are, to share in their challenges and victories. Beyond the cute babies (though they're a definite bonus!), it's those "me too" moments, those shared experiences, that fuel my passion. In my practice, I take a "wholistic" approach, ensuring that both the breastfeeding person and baby receive comprehensive care tailored to their unique needs. I firmly believe in instilling confidence in mothers, providing practical support, and connecting families with the resources they need to thrive. When a mother feels uncertain or overwhelmed, I strive to validate her feelings and break down the care plan into manageable steps. It's all about empowering resilience and offering support that meets families where they are. As for techniques, I'm a big believer in the basics: skin-to-skin contact, innate feeding reflexes, and yes, even a "nipple spa day" to promote healing and comfort. Outside of my professional role, you'll find me soaking up quality time with my family, buried in a good book, or indulging in some reality TV escapism. I might joke that I'm more of an “indoorsy” type, but I cherish our outdoor adventures just as much. In the words of Amethyst Joy, "Postpartum is a quest back to yourself. Alone in your body again. You will never be the same. You are stronger than you were." It's a sentiment that resonates deeply with me as I walk alongside families on their journeys through birth, postpartum, and breastfeeding.
