I've been working with Karen for 5 months now. She has been truly exceptional. She has idea galore, tips and tricks I've never heard (this is my 3rd kiddo) and sage, wise advice. I'm not sure if we would still be breastfeeding without her. She is a gem. I would absolutely recommend Karen and Bayou City Breastfeeding. Without a doubt!!
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave such a great review. We think Karen is amazing too, and are so happy to have her on our team.
Elitia Huang
We had such amazing support with the team at Bayou! They helped us with our two babies who had tongue ties and I learned how to do the stretches and nurse them effectively. My babies are healthy and growing so well because of their experience and expertise! Even when we moved to a different state, we still reached out to them and they gave such valuable virtual help! You guys are amazing!
Response from the owner:Elitia, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such a wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that our services were able to help you with the issues you encountered while breastfeeding your babies with tongue tie. It was truly an honor and a privilege to be able to assist you in this journey. We are so glad that the virtual visits were beneficial and that your babies are now thriving! If there is anything else we can do to help you, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We are always here for you! Warmly, Bayou City Breastfeeding

Tiphany was the absolute best! She was very knowledgeable and gave great insight/tips. She was very patient, kind, caring and really listened to what you had to say and what your concerns were.

Nicole is absolutely incredible at what she does. Her passion and expertise are evident in every session. She is kind, patient, and makes you feel completely at ease—never rushed. I’ve learned so much from her during each visit. She takes the time to thoroughly explain everything, listens carefully to your concerns, and addresses them with compassion and clarity. What I appreciate most is that she never pressures you into anything—she supports your choices and empowers you with knowledge. I highly recommend seeing Nicole for any lactation support or questions. She truly goes above and beyond.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Carolyn, for your incredibly thoughtful words! We're overjoyed to hear how supported and empowered you’ve felt during your time with Nicole. Her heart truly shines through every session, and it’s clear from your experience that her dedication and compassion are making a meaningful impact. At Bayou City Breastfeeding, we believe every parent deserves care that’s informative, respectful, and tailored to their individual journey—and Nicole embodies that mission wholeheartedly. Your appreciation of her kindness, patience, and expert guidance means the world to us. Thank you for trusting Nicole and for recommending her so highly. We’re honored to be part of your breastfeeding journey! 💗

Julie Pugh
My 4 month old and I are extremely grateful for all the information and training we received from a home visit with Tiphany. Thanks to her, we are now on the right path to addressing some serious lip, tongue and buccal ties! In turn my babe will drastically reduce her risks of oral malformations as she develops during her childhood years. And of course improve her ability to take a bottle, which was the original reason for our visit! Thank you Tiphany!!
Grace W.
Suzanne has helped me so much during my breastfeeding journey. I had to exclusively pump the first few weeks after birth because my baby wouldn’t latch. Now we are 1 month pp exclusively breastfeeding, and I am so grateful!
Response from the owner:Hi Grace! Thank you for your review!!!! 😊 There are certainly others who are facing similar issues with latching and have to pump exclusively at the beginning of their breastfeeding journey that will benefit from your story. 😊 We are so happy that Bayou City Breastfeeding was able to provide you the encouragement, support and help needed to continue your breastfeeding journey. Just remember you did ALL the hard work to ensure that your baby thrived!!! You are the superhero and should be proud of yourself!!!! 😊 Please let us know if there is any additional help that Bayou City Breastfeeding can provide. We are here for you!!! 😊 Thank you!
