Absolutely love Suzanne. She is a wealth of knowledge, truly cares about you and your babies journey, and has great recommendations across the board. She is like a warm hug every time! I would and will recommend any mommas needing help to her over and over.

My whole experience with BABE was great. It was easy to get an appointment and get help. Jen was so knowledgeable and easy to work with. I’m recommending all my friends who breastfeeding reach out for help with BABE, especially for those early breastfeeding days.

This is one of the easiest 5 stars I’ve given! Morgan has been a godsend. She’s worked with us through struggles with bottle feeding and a tongue tie. She’s phenomenal, and I’d recommend her to anyone needing feeding help for their little one.
Response from the owner:Hi Amanda, Thank you so much for your amazing review! We are thrilled to hear that Megan has been such a phenomenal support for you and your little one. Your kind words mean the world to us, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to have been part of your feeding journey. Feel free to reach out if you need anything else! All the best, The Alamo City Breastfeeding Team

This place is a dream!! My lactation consultant is Erica!! she’s simply a doll very knowledgeable and patient with me. On the first visit we established goals and how to meet them let alone making sure baby has a great latch!! Between visits I’m able to reach out to Erica for more support via app and that has also became sooooo helpful!! I highly recommend this place let alone I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ERICA if anyone need a lactation consultant.

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! 💗

I had such a great visit & experience with Mary, I am so glad I chose Bayou City! My experience was warm & not rushed, we spent the better of 2 hours together & she really got to know me & my baby. She checked things you’d expect your pedi to check but they don’t always. I’m having low supply issues & thought I had tried everything but Mary still gave me good information & things to try that I haven’t. If you’re considering visiting an LC, do it!!! 10/10 Id recommend Bayou City to anyone breastfeeding!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so happy to be a part of your breastfeeding journey!
