In Home Visits
Is breastfeeding not going as you hoped it would? Are you struggling with sore nipples, poor latch, slow weight gain, over/under milk supply, or any number of issues that can arise? Are you unsure how to use your breast pump? Although breastfeeding is supposed to be a natural means of feeding our babies, it is not always easy. The good news is that I can provide you with non-judgmental lactation support in the comfort of your own home.
Initial Consultation $300
The initial consultation typically lasts 1.5-2 hours and includes:
-
listening to your concerns about breastfeeding
-
understanding the medical history for you and your baby (or babies)
-
assessing your breasts and the baby's oral anatomy/suck ability
-
observing a breastfeeding session
-
weighing the baby pre and post feeding
-
demonstrating techniques and tools to help improve breastfeeding
-
teaching you how to use a breast pump and how/where to store the milk
-
providing recommendations and a care plan to you and your pediatrician (if desired)
I am available for unlimited texts, emails, and calls after the visit, which is included in the initial fee.
Follow-up Visit $200
Return visits are sometimes necessary to check on the progress of breastfeeding, to tweak some issues that haven't been resolved, or to weigh the baby. These visits typically last 1-1.5 hours.
Prenatal Visit $150
Private prenatal visits in the comfort of your own home typically last 1 hour and are tailored to your specific needs. I will provide breastfeeding education, a breast exam, demonstration of breastfeeding techniques, and recommendations on how to avoid unnecessary medical interventions that can lead to breastfeeding complications and supplementation.
