01

Do you support parents who are combination feeding?

Yes.

Combination feeding is a valid feeding choice, and I can help parents think through how breastfeeding, pumping, and bottles can work together.

03

Can you help with bottle feeding?

Yes.

My newborn care experience includes bottle feeding and helping families establish practical feeding routines.

05

What if breastfeeding is not going the way I expected?

You are not alone.

Feeding a newborn can be very different from what parents imagined. We can talk through what you are experiencing and identify practical next steps and questions to bring to your healthcare provider when needed.

07

Can I apply before my baby arrives?

Yes. Prenatal support can be useful for preparing for feeding, newborn care, and the early postpartum period.

02

Can you help me with pumping?

Yes. I can provide general education and practical support around pumping routines and combining pumping with breastfeeding.

04

Can you tell me if my baby is getting enough milk?

I can help you understand common feeding patterns and questions to discuss with your healthcare provider.

​

I cannot diagnose medical or feeding conditions.

06

Are you a medical professional?

No. I provide breastfeeding counseling and newborn and postpartum support. I do not diagnose or treat medical conditions.

When a medical concern is present, I recommend working with your doctor, midwife, IBCLC, pediatrician, or other appropriate healthcare professional.
