“My breastfeeding experience is very successful, thanks to the Center. I feel empowered, enlightened, and able to continue through challenges for as long as I determine is right for my family.”
“Every time I fear I may have to give up breastfeeding before I’m ready due to pain, I contact the Breastfeeding Center. The knowledge and support of consultants Gina and Nancy has empowered me to continue. And when it’s time to wean, I know there’ll be there for me, too. My family is stronger and healthier because of this amazing resource.”
“That was the most helpful hour of my entire pregnancy—I can’t wait to talk with Gina again!”
“The Breastfeeding Center and our consultant Heather have contributed greatly to developing a healthy breastfeeding relationship with our little boy. I know it’s a long process and dynamic but I’ve gone from dreading the pain of it to looking forward to many sessions and feeling far less pain on the whole.”
“I am SO appreciative that Heather met me where I was- third baby, difficult breastfeeding experiences before, and fully ready to exclusively pump. I will forever be grateful that there was no pressure or guilt to only breastfeed - she clearly stated she wanted me to achieve MY goals. Loved that.”
“I have only been breastfeeding for a week, but the day before the appointment I was googling “I want to quit breastfeeding” and crying as I read through the stories. I felt like the pain was really impacting how much I was enjoying spending time with my baby. Torey’s concrete plan for pain management has already improved my breastfeeding experience — I no longer dread the next feeding session.”
“Fantastic classes and consultations. Essential support for breastfeeding moms.”
“Without the Breastfeeding Center I wouldn’t have had a successful experience! You helped my son recover from tongue tie so I was happy to turn to you again with questions about pump troubleshooting and weaning.”
“Cheryl was truly amazing. So kind, comforting, helpful, and professional. She really listened to all my concerns and answered all my questions with patience and care. She was so helpful and clear in all the advice she shared. I left feeling confident whereas I had come in concerned. She turned everything around for me!”
“Tina was very attentive and supportive. At one point, I was visibly overwhelmed (about to start crying) and even though it was through the computer, she could tell I was upset and asked if I was okay. She gave me the space to cry and told me I was doing a good job. She was very compassionate.”
“It was a great experience that provided me more benefit than I expected. I liked how it was such a relaxed environment and everyone was clearly just there to help each other. Torey facilitated well, moving the group along and providing extra information when needed.”
“[My appointment with Isabela] was 100% life changing and so helpful. We are on the way to great latches and a positive breastfeeding experience.”
“My breastfeeding experience is great, but the Breastfeeding Center and Margaret helped with supporting me on so many levels. I am truly thankful for what services are provided.”
“I’ve been breastfeeding for over a year now. I saw Leslie early on, and she was key to me sticking with it. She calmed my nerves, encouraged me, taught me how to get my baby to latch. And I learned how to use a pump and nursing bra from you guys. :)”
“Your variety of service with extremely well educated and trained professionals who are passionate about their work and helping others is great. I also sincerely appreciate the ability to text the center with questions and receive a thorough, personalized, and prompt response.”
“I feel like no matter what comes up - the center is here for me. It gives me more confidence in my breastfeeding journey.”
“Maureen is amazing at what she does and went above and beyond to help figure out the source of the issues we were experiencing. I also love participating in the support group she facilitates. She is the best!”
“I cannot sing the praises of the Breastfeeding Center enough. I’ve seen Torey and Maureen both virtually in one on one appointments as well as in the weekly support group and I’ve also worked with Gina in person. I tell every new mom I know about the Center, whether they’re local or not!! ”
“I’ve really hated breastfeeding, but the tips I got from Heather are already making it a little better. I was honestly skeptical that a lactation consult would make a difference, but I’m happy to say I was wrong. ”
“The Breastfeeding Center has been a lifesaver. When I didn’t know what I was doing, I was able to quickly make an appointment and the next day had support. Margaret and Jenna both cared as much about me and how I was doing and managing as they did about getting breastfeeding happening. I felt very supported in every decision i made and validated that I was doing the best that I can. I was ready to give up breastfeeding and they made me feel like I could keep going. We went from 100% formula fed to nearly 100% breastfed. ”
“We had a great experience with the Breastfeeding Center with our first child, so we reached out for help with breastfeeding concerns for our second child. We met with Nancy Mallin a few times, and her guidance was truly life changing. Our baby was underweight and not gaining properly due to a poor latch and my supply was rapidly decreasing. After following Nancy’s advice, I’m happy to report that our baby has consistently been jumping the weight curve and my supply has dramatically increased (and we have not needed to supplement with formula). We’re truly grateful for her support and guidance. Thanks a million, Nancy!”
