Our approach to lactation care is client-centered, based on individual needs and comfort

and not on any prescribed agenda. We are your advocate, your "breast friend," and your

champion, and we’ll provide the evidence-based research on infant feeding practices

and maternal health to create a personalized plan of care. This process is about

compassionate care, education, and empowerment. If you have checked insurance

and been denied coverage, please see our self-pay rates below. We provide

superbills for patients to submit to insurance on their own for reimbursement, though

we cannot guarantee reimbursement rates.
