Real-life guidance to help you on your breastfeeding journey
Services
-
Initial Consultation
During an initial consult, whether it’s in home or in office, I will assess a complete feeding, help with position, latch, milk transfer, conduct a functional oral assessment to evaluate for tongue/lip ties, & create a customized feeding plan to meet your goals.
-
Follow Up Visits
Follow Up Visits are offered to established clients re-assess feeding, milk transfer and revise infant feeding plan. Follow up visits are offered at reduce costs as many breastfeeding issues require more than one visit to resolve.
-
Virtual Consults
If you need lactation support but prefer telehealth or live outside of the area, a Virtual consult is the solution for you! Similar to in person, during a telehealth visit, I will do a breastfeeding assessment, provide helpful and actionable tips for latching & positioning and provide a tailored care plan to help you reach breastfeeding success.
-
Prenatal Consults
Learn strategies to get breastfeeding off to a good start before your baby is born. You will learn about positioning, latch, how to tell if baby is getting enough, and much more. I will review your history and together we will make a plan to get breastfeeding off to a good start.
Payment is due at the time of the appointment. I will provide a Superbill that you can submit to your insurance. Most major insurance companies in Massachusetts reimburse families. I am in network with Aetna and will submit claims to Aetna directly. Families are responsible for payment of copays and patient responsibilities per Aetna.
