Santa Barbara Breastfeeding Help

Feed your baby with confidence.

Breastfeeding can be the new mother’s number one challenge after giving birth. Milk supply, getting a good latch, cracked nipples, cluster feeding and more can make feeding your newborn baby feel overwhelming and near impossible. Loving, caring support and trained support in the first few weeks postpartum help ensure you have a healthy start to breastfeeding your baby.

Need help with breastfeeding?

As a Certified Lactation Counselor, I have specific training in lactation support for newborns and infants with breastfeeding challenges. Having someone by your side who is nurturing, calm, and trained in breastfeeding support to assist you is invaluable.

My breastfeeding support services are customized to your unique needs. I can help you with:

I will help you get a proper latch and breastfeeding postion to prevent latching pain while nursing.
Unsure of how to recognize your baby’s feeding cues? I will help you understand when and how often to feed your baby.
If you are struggling with engorgement and mastitis, I can help ease the discomfort and restore breastfeeding health.
Going back to work soon or need to pump your breastmilk? I can teach you all about pumping and storage.
