Build a Strong Foundation Before Baby Arrives
Breastfeeding success begins long before your baby is born.
Whether this is your first baby or your fourth, preparing during pregnancy can help you feel more confident, reduce stress, and give you a personalized plan before you bring your baby home.
We Help You Feel Prepared and Supported
Our prenatal services are designed to help you understand what to expect, identify any unique challenges ahead of time, and begin your feeding journey with confidence.
CONSULTATION
Meeting you
To start, we’ll meet with you before baby arrives to get to know you, your needs, and your breastfeeding goals. We’ll define a personalized plan to help you feel knowledgable and prepared before going into labor and delivery.
FIRST MEETING
Meeting baby
Once baby is here, we’ll meet with you both to see how things are going and where support is needed. We’ll check in on our plan and make adjustments as we go.
CHECK-INS
Following up
We’ll schedule a follow up appointment with you to see how you and baby are doing and if the plan is working. We can continue to make adjustments and schedule appointments as needed so you feel comfortable and confident.

“I am so grateful that Lauren was there to guide me through the birth of my second daughter! Lauren is attentive, caring, kind, informative, and made the birth experience better for me in so many ways. She exudes calm, joy, and makes you feel seen, heard and cared for through it all.
By combining her loving heart with her extensive knowledge, she is someone I would go back to for support over and over.”
