We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Liz! She was our night doula and was with us for the first eight weeks of our daughter’s life and made those early newborn weeks so much easier, calmer, and more enjoyable. As first-time parents, handing over our four-day-old baby was incredibly emotional, but Liz immediately made us feel completely at ease. Our daughter loved her from the start and was always so calm and content with her. She had an incredible ability to soothe her, and we quickly felt completely comfortable knowing our baby was in such loving, capable hands. She became part of our family, and we genuinely looked forward to the nights she came. She was warm, dependable, quiet as a mouse, and always went the extra mile—tidying up, washing bottles, and having everything clean and ready for us in the morning. Having her expertise as a lactation consultant was also invaluable. While I was waiting for my milk supply to come in and figuring out how to build my supply, she answered countless questions and gave me so much reassurance and confidence. Liz made our first eight weeks as new parents infinitely easier, and we feel incredibly lucky she was part of such a special time in our lives. Any family would be so fortunate to have her, and we would recommend her in a heartbeat!

The Latchlink Lactation

Accepts insurance

The Latch Link was founded to give mothers access to skilled, personalized lactation care that goes far beyond basic breastfeeding support. After experiencing firsthand how difficult it can be to find high-quality guidance, the practice was created with one goal in mind: to make expert, compassionate lactation care easy to access for every family. Today, The Latch Link is a nationwide virtual lactation practice providing evidence-based breastfeeding and infant-feeding support from highly trained consultants. The team combines clinical expertise with a whole-mother approach, focusing on both feeding and the emotional and physical realities of new motherhood. All visits are conducted via secure telehealth and are typically covered 100% by major insurance plans, allowing families to meet with their consultant from the comfort of home with no added stress. From pregnancy through weaning, The Latch Link supports parents with everything from latch and milk supply to pumping, bottle feeding, oral function concerns, and more. The mission is simple: to give every mother the clarity, confidence, and support she deserves — no judgment, no confusion, just truly skilled care.

I worked with Amber several time when nursing my twins. She was extremely sweet and made me feel like I was talking to a good friend. She was very knowledgeable but also extremely approachable, very different than the hospital IBCLC. She really helped me feel like I was doing well as a mother and her care and support helped me be able to exclusively breastfeeding my twins for the first 10 months of their lives.

I can not recommend Heather enough. She helped me through one of my most vulnerable times and became a key player in my breastfeeding success. Heather accurately identified tongue, lip, and cheek ties in my daughter and helped shed light on why we had been having feeding issues. She supported us through our decision to get her ties revised and helped us navigate her recovery. Heather is an expert in her field and continues to be a main source of support with my breastfeeding journey. I am so happy we found Heather and would recommend her whole heartedly to anyone who finds themselves overwhelmed or struggling with breastfeeding.

I provide expert IBCLC lactation consulting in Birmingham, AL. I offer personalized, concierge style breastfeeding support with in home and virtual consultations. Whether you need help with latch, milk supply, or newborn feeding, I'm happy to guide you through your breastfeeding journey with compassionate care. I love helping moms meet their own breastfeeding goals!

Recent review

I am beyond grateful for the incredible support and guidance I received from Dana in the early days of my breastfeeding journey. Right after birth, we faced several challenges—including low milk production, latch difficulties, my baby’s slow weight gain, and eventually a diagnosis of cow’s milk protein intolerance. Through it all, Dana met us with patience, encouragement, and genuine compassion. She not only offered practical solutions and expert knowledge, but also created a space where I felt heard and supported during a vulnerable and emotional time. Her presence helped me build the confidence I needed to keep going, even when it all felt incredibly overwhelming. Now, nearly 10 months later, I’m so proud to say we are still breastfeeding—and thriving. The benefits to both me and my baby have been remarkable: a deep bond, strong immunity for my little one, and significant cost savings (especially considering how expensive hypoallergenic formulas are!). I truly believe we wouldn’t be where we are today without Dana’s dedication and support.
