Breastfeeding Support

Breastfeeding is an important and special time for both mother and baby.  As a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist, my aim is to help you reach your breastfeeding goals.  I am proud to offer personalized counseling and education both before and after the arrival of your  new baby!

Prenatal Breastfeeding Education

Upper Valley Birth Doula - Breastfeeding supportCopyright 2014. All rights reserved.
Start with confidence!  This prenatal education/counseling session is ideal for first time mothers, as well as for mothers who may have experienced previous challenges while breastfeeding.  Since this is a private session, I am able to tailor the information to your personal needs.  Learn the basics of breastfeeding, address any concerns you might have, make a plan for returning to work, and learn how to troubleshoot common challenges, all from the comfort and privacy of your own home!

Fee for Prenatal Breastfeeding Education and Counseling:
$60 for a 1.5 hour class
$40  per hour for established clients


Postpartum Breastfeeding Support

Once your little one arrives, I can help you ease into a confident, healthful breastfeeding relationship and help you address common concerns, such as sore nipples, engorged breasts, uncertainties about milk supply or latch, and other questions you may have.  Often times, minor aches and discomforts can be easily addressed with only minor adjustments.  Addressing problems early-on can help prevent many future ones (and sometimes worse ones) from developing!  Together, we can explore a variety of evidence-based and time-tested techniques to ensure you both get the most from this important time.  

Are you concerned about continuing breastfeeding after returning to work?  I am happy to help you create an individualized plan to facilitate your transition back to work as a breastfeeding mom.

Fees for Postpartum Breastfeeding Counseling:
 $60 per hour for new clients
$40 per hour for established clients
 Additional visits: $30 per hour 

Note: Basic Breastfeeding support is included during postpartum visits for  doula care packages.
