 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Madeline is amazing! Truly helped save my breastfeeding journey. I was ready to give up! She’s so sweet and knowledgeable. Since working w her, I’m finally able to directly breastfeed rather than exclusively pump.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  I recently had my first child and she immediately latched after birth and it was comfortable so I thought we were good to go. I was wrong. Shortly after we got home things changed and I was in so much pain. My body was changing and so was my baby’s. Their latch was extreme and my nipples were screaming. I would flinch every time it was time to feed her and I felt horrible. I reached out to Simply Lactation and Madeline was able to come for a home visit rather quickly. Way sooner than other services I inquired with and she was an absolute life saver! I had a lot of things wrong from misinformation online and that also impacted my confidence. She helped with all of it! I can’t thank her enough and the only thing I’d do different is reach out before delivery to get ahead lol. Thank you Madeline! I’ll be reaching out again for pumping help lol.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Kristina is absolutely amazing. After just one session with her we went from HOURS of trying to get baby to latch for just a few minutes of feeding to 5 minutes of trying to get baby to latch followed by 40+ minutes of feeding.

I honestly didn’t think it was going to be possible for me to breastfeed and was getting so discouraged after finding out baby was losing too much weight. Now, I feel so relieved and confident in what I’m doing.

She also helped put together a plan to get baby’s weight up and continue the breast feeding journey.

Thank you so much, Kristina!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Kristina was a life saver in those early breast feeding days. She gave such amazing advice and also provided endless reassurance. She was very thorough and truly made a big difference - particularly with my son’s latch. I was having a lot of pain and the pain was essentially gone after her visit. Not to mention that she is also just such a sweet person. Would absolutely recommend to all moms who are needing lactation support.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens during a lactation consultation?

Each session starts with a detailed discussion about your baby’s feeding history and your breastfeeding experience. Your consultant will observe a feeding, assess latch and positioning, check for tongue or lip ties, and create a personalized feeding plan with practical steps you can follow right away.

Are your services covered by insurance?

Yes! We accept Aetna, Cigna, BlueCross BlueShield, and United Healthcare, and most plans cover up to six visits with no out-of-pocket cost as part of preventive care. Virtual and in-home visits are typically included.

How soon can I get an appointment?

We offer next-day appointments in most cases. Once you fill out the form, our team verifies your insurance and schedules your session as soon as possible.

Do you offer in-home visits or virtual consultations?

Yes, both! You can book an in-home visit if you prefer hands-on guidance or a virtual consultation if you’d like support from the comfort of your home—especially ideal for new moms recovering postpartum.

Can you help with milk supply or pumping issues?

Absolutely. Our IBCLCs are experts in milk supply management, flange sizing, pumping schedules, and storage guidance. Many moms see improvement after just one visit.

My baby has a tongue tie. Can you help?

Yes. Our consultants are trained to identify and support tongue and lip tie concerns. We also coordinate care with pediatricians and dentists if a release procedure is needed, and provide post-procedure feeding guidance.

What if I’m a first-time mom and just need reassurance?

You’re not alone. Many moms book their first consultation just for peace of mind. We’ll walk you through best practices, check baby’s latch and feeding patterns, and answer all your questions—big or small.

Can you help if I’m combination feeding or exclusively pumping?

Yes! We support all feeding goals—exclusive breastfeeding, pumping, or formula supplementation. Our goal is to help you feel confident and informed in whatever feeding plan works best for your family.

Do you follow up after the visit?

Yes. You’ll receive a written care plan and ongoing follow-up via text or email to make sure you’re supported as things evolve.

How experienced are your consultants?

Our team includes board-certified IBCLCs and registered nurses with over 25 years of combined experience, who have supported more than 25,000 mothers in their breastfeeding journeys.
