Embarking on the breastfeeding journey is a beautiful and important chapter in early parenthood. As a lactation counselor, I offer specialized Lactation Visits in the comfort of your home to provide dedicated support, guidance, and expertise and ensure a positive and successful breastfeeding experience for both you and your baby.
Why Choose a Lactation Visit with Me?
Breastfeeding is a unique and personal experience, and I understand the individualized care it demands. As your dedicated lactation counselor, I tailor my services to address your specific needs, fostering a nurturing environment for both new parents and their newborns.
What my postpartum lactation visits include:
1. Comprehensive Lactation Assessment: I conduct a thorough assessment of both mother and baby, evaluating latch, positioning, and overall breastfeeding dynamics and history.
2. Troubleshooting Challenges: If you're facing challenges such as latch issues, nipple pain, or concerns about milk supply, I provide expert guidance to address and troubleshoot these challenges.
3. Feeding Observation: I observe a breastfeeding session, offering insights and adjustments to optimize the feeding experience for both mother and baby.
4. Weighted Feeding: I will weigh your baby before and after the nursing session to determine if the baby is transferring enough milk.
5. Tailored Support and Education: Receive personalized support and education on breastfeeding techniques, positioning, and strategies to enhance milk supply.
6. Assistance with Pumping and Milk Storage: If you're incorporating pumping into your feeding routine, I provide guidance on pump use, flange sizing, milk storage, and maintaining a healthy breastfeeding and pumping balance.
7. Lactation-Friendly Environment Setup: I ensure that your breastfeeding environment is comfortable and conducive to successful feedings, offering tips on creating a serene and relaxed space.
8. Postpartum Wellness Check: Beyond breastfeeding, I check in on your overall postpartum well-being, providing a holistic approach to support during this transformative time.
9. Prenatal Consultantions: I also also provide prenatal lactation consultations in which we will discuss what you should expect, go over latching and positioning, hand expression, breast gymnastics and teach you how you can harvest your colostrum.
*** My home visit supply kit consists of three different bags/suitcases, all with different supplies that you could ever need. I like trying out tools and every time a new product comes on the market that I think my clients would need, I cannot resist the urge to buy it.
