Lactation Consultation
Initial Appointment - $130 Follow Up Appointment - $65
As an IBCLC I have extensively studied the anatomy and physiology of lactation and am prepared to offer in depth support should problems arise. My role, as a collaborative part of your health care team, is to provide evidenced based care and support while encouraging you as you work toward reaching your infant feeding goals.
During your initial up to 2 hour consultation you'll receive answers to questions, support for dealing with difficulties, as well as your baby's weight, assistance with latching and positioning, a feeding assessment, and an individualized feeding plan.
I am happy to offer you support with your infant, baby, or toddler in the comfort of your home!
