Services

Breastfeeding can be difficult. Thankfully you don't have to do it alone.

Connect with me for in home lactation, breastfeeding, chestfeeding, and infant feeding support for you and your newborn completed virtually via HIPAA compliant and secure Google Meet.  In-home visits available for Boston, MA and the Northshore.

Gift certificates are available via my booking website to add to your baby registry, or to give as a gift!

A $50 non-refundable deposit is due when the visit is scheduled. The balance is due at the end of your visit. Initial visits for new clients are $300. Follow up visits for established patients are $250. Payments are completed through Square. 

I am currently not in network with any health insurance companies. A superbill will be provided for you to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. Under the ACA, lactation services are required to be covered by your health insurance without cost sharing. The National Women's Law Center offers a toolkit and a one page handout to help guide you on reimbursement.

I am happy to see you virtually if you live elsewhere. I cannot provide virtual care for folks who live in Georgia, New Mexico, Oregon, or Rhode Island due to IBCLC licensure laws. 

Visit types

  • Virtual visit unless otherwise arranged.

Initial Lactation Visit

• • 1-1.5 hours

  • Connect for help with breastfeeding/chestfeeding challenges or just to get your newborn feeding questions answered. Exclusive pumpers and formula feeding familes are all welcome. This visit will include a full review of mother's health history, infant's birth, and a feeding assessment . Within two hours of our visit you will receive a feeding plan and visit notes will be forwarded to mother's midwife or OBGYN and the infant's provider as appropriate.

  • Includes one week of e-mail support follow up.

Follow up Lactation Visit

• • 1-1.5 hours

  • Circle back to review how your feeding plan is going. We will update your plan with any changes and make sure that you and your infant are well on your way to meeting your breastfeeding/chestfeeding goals. Within two hours of our visit you will receive an updated feeding plan and visit notes will be forwarded to mother's midwife or OBGYN and the infant's provider.

  • Includes one week of e-mail support follow up.

Back to Work Visit

• • 1 hour

  • Concerned about returning to work? Connect to review your specific worries and determine a pumping plan that will ease you into your return to work and work for  your workday.

Breastfeeding/pumping While Traveling Visit

• • 1-1.5 hours

  • Traveling soon and not sure how to mange breastfeeding/chestfeeding or pumping while you're away. Connect for concrete recommendations to make travel easier whether your little one will be with you or staying home.  Within two hours of the visit you will receive a personalized plan for breastfeeding/chestfeeding/pumping while traveling.

Flange fitting

• 30 minutes

• Can be added on to an in-person visit after the first initial visit. An in-home inital visit focuses on directly breastfeeding your baby, unless you plan to exclusively pump. Flange measuring and fitting is best accomplished prior to breastfeeding, which is not easy with a baby who is ready to eat!

• Virtual flange fittings require parent to take a photo of each nipple with a ruler prior to appointment and e-mail to HIPPA compliant email address. Photo will be used to recommend  via e-mail flanges for you to purchase and try on during our virtual visit. Visit will be rescheduled for after you have received the recommended sizes in the mail. Pump flanges not included in cost of visit, average $20-40.
