Client Testimonials
Demi's Experience
Emily had a calm and knowledgable presence. She listened to me intently and took in all that I had to say. She taught me that breastfeeding can look lots of different ways, which was really helpful for me to hear. She had lots of suggestions and helped me create a plan which is what I needed. I would ten out of ten recommend her services.
Ariel's Feedback
I am so grateful to Emily for her knowledge and for her compassion during my feeding journey with my son. I exclusively pumped breastmilk, and I was surprised at how few lactation specialists had any expertise with breast pumps. Finding Emily was such a relief, because she worked with lots of pumping clients and she knew so much! She was able to troubleshoot issues with me over Zoom, over text, and over the phone. She also recommended different pumping supplies to help me customize my pump to suit my specific needs. I was able to pump for 13 months thanks to Emily's guidance and support.
Kelsey's Story
I can’t recommend Emily enough! She was recommended to us because a different health provider said our daughter might have a tongue tie. Emily has special training to assess for infant oral function and was able to meet with us at home to diagnose her tie. She was thorough and careful with her assessment and did not push getting it revised overly hard. She helped us through the process of getting our baby’s tie revised at 5 wks old and about 1 month later, she was nursing like a champ. Emily is non judgmental, very responsive to answer questions in between visits, and encouraging yet realistic with your goals. My husband and I were hesitant initially to invest in her services because it felt out of budget, but the time, stress, and health of our baby that she helped us save made the cost well worth it. Not to mention the money we’ve been able to save not paying for formula, since we would have had to opt for that without her help! Thank you Emily for all your support!
