Preparing for your confidential and professional In-home Lactation visit.

  • Before our visit:
    • I will send you an intake form and a few signature forms to sign. Please fill these out prior to our visit as it will help me to better serve you at our visit. Send me any information that i need in order to arrive to your home (gate code, apartment number, any details you feel would help me when coming to your home).
    • Please have baby ready for a feeding if i am working with you both. Try to avoid feeding baby within one hour of our visit.
    • If you have dogs, please have them in a different room from where we will be meeting. I love dogs, but it can pose some challenges for our visit.
    • If you have wifi please have it ready for me, if not that is fine.
  • Our consult:
    • Go over your questions and your goals for the session.
    • Review your breastfeeding/chestfeeding goals.
    • Review the intake form as needed
    • Check baby’s weight before and after a feeding (a weighted feeding)
    • Assess baby’s mouth for any oral restrictions.
    • Assess your breasts, measure nipples if needed
    • Assess a feeding or a pumping session
  • After our consult:
    • Message me for one week questions or concerns that we have worked with during our session
    • Be on the lookout for a superbill, if you paid out of pocket for our visit as a way to potentially get reimbursement through your insurance.
    • You will receive a care plan which will go over my recommendations for you and your baby, based upon your goals.
