Our commitment is to ensure a tranquil and fulfilling lactation experience. We understand that breastfeeding is far more than nutrition—it’s about nurturing life itself. With the expertise of our IBCLC certified lactation consultants, you’ll receive expert support that addresses both the physical and emotional facets of lactation.

From perfecting the latch to mastering milk storage, we cover all aspects of lactation. We offer practical advice on pumping, hand expression, and can help you make personalized plans for going back to work.  We also equip you to overcome challenges like milk supply, nipple soreness, and thrush. Our approach goes beyond the mechanics of breastfeeding, embracing the emotional pieces of bonding with your baby and partner.

We recognize that concerns vary from managing the newness of a first baby and their tender care to an older  'Velcro baby' who needs constant closeness, transitioning from NICU feeding to breastfeeding at home. Our consultants are dedicated to providing solutions and strategies for these unique situations. We are dedicated to supporting your decisions and finding ways to focus on the well-being of the entire family.

Unique to Family Seasons IBCLC lactation consultations is the deep dive into understanding oral function. Our IBCLC’s have extensive education and skills for assessing tongue and lip dysfunction and oral restriction. While IBCLC’s are not able to diagnose tongue and lip tie, they are able to perform a thorough assessment to help you know what might be going on to cause symptoms you haven't found resolution for.

Amidst the widely varying tongue and lip tie opinions, the consultants at Family Seasons follow the most current research and information possible to assess your little ones. Suck dysfunction can be due to things such as poor latch, positioning challenges, structural issues, overactive let down, uncoordinated infant reflexes, birth trauma or ties. Our individualized treatment plans address each of the things that YOUR baby is struggling with.

If your baby's challenge includes tongue or lip tie, our consultants are an integral part of the tethered oral tissue (TOTs) caregiving team. Our IBCLC’s  work with breastfeeding and bottle feeding families helping them to understand every step of the journey. This includes pre-release bodywork & mouthwork, release counsel and post release care.

We know that a diagnosis by your primary care provider of tongue tie is often an unexpected and emotionally challenging experience and we will help you navigate your journey with compassion and experience.
