Accessibility Statement

Last updated: April 2, 2026

Essential Lactation PLLC is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of technology or ability. We are actively working to increase the accessibility and usability of our website and in doing so adhere to many of the available standards and guidelines.

Our Commitment

We strive to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities, and conformance with these guidelines helps make the web more user-friendly for all people.

Current Efforts

Our website is built on the Squarespace platform, utilizing its built-in accessibility features, including:

  • Semantic Structure: Proper use of headings (H1 through H4) for screen reader navigation.

  • Alt Text: Descriptions for all meaningful images.

  • Keyboard Navigation: Ensuring all site elements are reachable via keyboard.

  • Color Contrast: Maintaining high contrast between text and backgrounds for readability.

Third-Party Tools

While we strive for full accessibility, certain third-party integrations (such as IntakeQ, Square, or PayPal) are controlled by those providers. We monitor these tools to ensure they meet our standards for inclusion.
