In-Home Breastfeeding Support

 

Laura and Kate are breastfeeding counsellors who have been helping people for many years in achieving their goals. 

We assess and assist you with any challenges you may be having in a focused and individualized way.  We feel strongly that each person should be treated with the care that can only come from working with you where you are most comfortable. Visiting you in your home relieves any outside tension and gives you confidence in making your experience a successful one.  

We offer two support options:

Option #1
Hourly Breastfeeding Consultation: We come to you! 

  • We arrange to come when your baby is as close to a feed as possible.

  • We assess your concerns and make suggestions regarding positions

  • Latch techniques, working through engorgement, clogged ducts 

  • Anticipating your newborn needs regarding breastfeeding

  • Text and phone suggestions as required

Rate: $70 per hour.

We are always available by text and will follow up by phone where needed.  

Option #2
Your Breastfeeding Journey Package

Your package includes:

Pre-assessment visit
We come to you shortly before your baby is born to get you ready. We discuss breastfeeding basics and what to expect. We can review any of the equipment needed and the things you need to know for the first few weeks. This is a personalized consult that extends past the breastfeeding portion of any childbirth education class.

After birth visit (In the hospital or your home depending on the situation)
Once baby is born, we attend to you in the hospital or your home if you have had a home birth. We will help you become comfortable and find the positions you feel best in. We give you the time you need to get comfortable and try different methods. We review and can help with optimal latch techniques and what to look for. We can review what to look for in your newborn’s cues for wanting to feed. 

1 follow up visit.
This visit is in your home to address any issues or complications you are experiencing. 

Rate for package: $325.00

  • Visits in the hospital and your home will be personalized for you and your needs.

  • Follow up by phone or text is included. 

  • If any further follow-up visits are needed- the fee would be $70.00 per hour.

  • We bring some supplies that will assist us in working with you. Any supplies we provide will require reimbursement. 

    Please note: Depending on the situation, the breastfeeding package might not be exactly as described. Also, sometimes things go very well right away (probably because of all the great info received on the first session) and you don’t feel you need the other sessions. There is no partial refunds should you feel you don’t need the other sessions.
