What Families are Saying

Molly, Mom of Three

Lynn is fabulous and helped me with all 3 of my babies. Having Lynn come to my home was such a wonderful experience that started my breastfeeding journey off on the right foot with my third baby. She is so knowledgeable and taught me so many new things. Her communication after the consult is super helpful. It is so nice to know I can shoot her a text or call if i have a question and she’s there to support me. Lynn truly was the most helpful part of my breastfeeding/postpartum journey, she is such a blessing!

Laura, a New Breastfeeding Mom

Lynn has come to my home twice for help with breastfeeding! She has a wealth of knowledge from many years in the field. It was reassuring to do a weighted feed and know exactly how much my baby is taking in nutritionally. Lynn is kind, timely, and has SO many great tips. I have learned way more from her than the breastfeeding class that I took before giving birth.

Karly’s Testimonial

I have worked with Lynn many times since my daughter was born in January, both in person and over the phone. I truly cannot speak highly enough of her. Lynn was able to help me establish and maintain a healthy supply of milk, as well as build a substantial freezer stock. My daughter is 8 months old now and we have not needed to use formula once. I wouldn’t have been able to achieve this without Lynn’s help. Not only is she a wealth of knowledge in all things baby-related, but she is also warm and personable. Her holistic approach is a great fit for our family. We are so grateful to have found her.
