“Sara is everything you could want out of a lactation provider. She is professional, prompt, organized, down to earth, and supportive.”

— Leah B

“Sara was extremely knowledgeable, efficient, kind, and gentle. She was able to provide the specific care that my son and I needed after his birth. She went out of her way to meet us as soon as possible to relieve my pain at the beginning of our breastfeeding journey. She provided all the tools, advice, and knowledge necessary for us to succeed! I highly recommend Sara to any new family looking for assistance. I don’t know where we would be now without her!”

— Yasmin W

“Sara was beyond reassuring and knowledgeable. Feeding a baby can be stressful, clunky and have parents in a funk but Sara helps not only with practical plans and solutions but was so validating to the intense experience that can happen for families. Not to mention her services are made accessible by doing home visits. I reached out several times after her visit and she was always so willing to answer questions. She also provided frequent check ins which were appreciated. I highly recommend!!”
