Seeking personalized assistance with breastfeeding?
A one-on-one session is beneficial if you are facing a particular concern, challenge, or question that is hindering your breastfeeding journey from being positive. If you are experiencing any of the following issues, this session is for you:

This is an opportunity to ask about my services, my approach to helping, and how I can support parents in achieving their breastfeeding goals. This is an excellent chance for parents to assess my expertise, compatibility, and approach to care. It's important for parents to feel confident with their lactation consultant choice, as this relationship can significantly impact their breastfeeding journey. After the call, if both parties feel it's a good fit, next steps can be taken, which will include scheduling in-person or virtual consultations.
This is not the appropriate call to seek tailored advice for your current challenges. I can only provide guidance once an assessment has been performed. If you require specific advice, I recommend scheduling an initial consultation appointment.
