Very helpful introductory meeting. I appreciated that I received an explanation for my issues and simple solutions. I felt reassured that I could continue my breastfeeding journey.

I am so grateful for Priscilla, from the very beginning she wanted to make sure how I was doing and always there for any support I needed. I worked with her for my sons tongue tie release and BF/feeding support. I am thankful I had her help and also got to work with Mandy and Karen (at the pediatric dentist) for the release. I would also see them in the office and they truly care about all of their patients. Thank you ladies for all of your help!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Brooke! Your kind words truly warmed our hearts. It was an absolute honor for Priscilla to walk alongside you during your feeding journey—and we’re so glad she could offer the support and care you needed, every step of the way. We'll be sure to share your appreciation with Mandy and Karen, too—they’ll be thrilled to know they made a difference. Nothing makes us happier than knowing you felt seen, supported, and empowered. Thank you for letting us be a part of such a special chapter in your family's story!
Britni was AMAZING! My breasts were so swollen, engorged and tender at our first appointment but less than a week later I felt great! She helped me bring down my oversupply and engorgement and now I feel great! Can’t recommend her enough!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so happy to be a part of your breastfeeding journey!
Working with Suzanne has been a great experience. She is very knowledgeable, gives great solutions to problems and always answers questions even outside of appointments. I had a difficult start to my nursing journey but she helped me improve and solidify my nursing relationship with my little one and I’m very thankful for all of her help!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so pleased that we were a part of your support team!
We took the childbirth prep class last week and were so glad we did! As first time parents, we have definitely been overwhelmed with all the information floating around out there. This class gave us a good high level overview of what to expect leading up to labor, during labor and those first few weeks after birth. Jen was so great at breaking things down for us and answering any specific questions we had! Would highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Hi Kayla, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that our childbirth prep class provided you with the clarity and confidence you needed as first-time parents. It's great to know that Jen was able to break things down effectively and address all your questions. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we're so glad we could be a part of your journey into parenthood. Wishing you all the best in the exciting weeks ahead! 🌟👶💖 The Bayou City Breastfeeding Team
Kristin has been all the things to help me navigate the breast-feeding journey. Empathetic, patient, encouraging, helping me lay out a plan, helping navigate other providers and asking good questions. Highly recommend.

Rosalba Gutierrez is an amazing lactation consultant. She also takes Aetna insurance, but if you contact her she can refer you to check whether she may be...
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!!
