What to Expect During Your Visit

Let me take you behind the scenes and show you what a typical visit looks like. Every visit is different because every situation is different, but here's the flow I usually follow:

I'll listen first

Your story, your challenges, your goals — what's working and what isn't. I want to understand where you are before we do anything else.

Then we'll work together:

Weigh baby before and after feeding
Watch a complete feeding
Check latch and positioning
Assess baby's mouth and tongue
Assess your breasts for pain, supply concerns, or anatomy questions
Measure for correct flange size if pumping
Discuss pumping guidance and equipment
Provide bottle and pacifier information if needed
Troubleshoot feeding schedules or pumping routines
Plan for returning to work
Address supply management

"I'll give you information so you understand how breastfeeding works — because when you're informed, you can make empowered choices."

At the end of your visit:

Clear plan and recommendations discussed together
My contact info provided for questions between visits
Follow-up visit scheduled if needed

My approach comes from 15 years as a midwife and NICU nurse. I give you practical, evidence-based support that fits your real life — not a one-size-fits-all solution. Serving Cooper City and surrounding areas.

Lactation Support — How Many Visits Are Necessary?

Every breastfeeding journey is unique, and so is the support you'll need. Here are common times families reach out:

1–2 visits during pregnancy (preparation, questions, setting expectations)
2–3 visits in the early weeks (most critical time for establishing supply and latch)
1 visit before returning to work (pumping planning, schedule adjustments)
1 visit before starting solid foods (navigating the transition)
Also: tongue tie concerns, slow weight gain, clogged ducts or mastitis, nipple pain, breast-to-bottle transitions
