I could not possibly recommend them enough. Nicole and the team are incredible and are always available to help when I have questions between visits. The best decision I’ve ever made was to call Bayou City Breastfeeding when my little one was a few days old. We made it to 6 months and are still going strong thanks to Nicole!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the review! And congratulations on achieving 6 months of breastfeeding! You have a very lucky baby! ❤️
I can’t rave enough about Suzanne and her staff. I was clueless as a first time mom regarding all things breastfeeding.. she answered all my questions and more. Supportive, informative, and caring all around!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the kind review! We have been so happy to be a part of your journey into motherhood ❤️
Brandy is fantastic! She really listened to my concerns and helped me to setup for success for breastfeeding and pumping when I go back to work. She even helped fit me for the correct sized phalange for the pump and tested it in office to be sure. I definitely recommend for anyone wanting to breastfeed

I needed guidance on how to navigate breastfeeding my toddler while pregnant and Miranda and Megan did not disappoint! They both helped me form a plan for continuing to bf my toddler while also setting new routines to facilitate night weaning and encourage longer stretches of sleep for the both of us.
Response from the owner:Hi Baylie! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. Your kind words will surely encourage other moms who are facing a similar situation. We are thrilled that Miranda and Megan were able to provide you with the tools and resources that you needed to fix your sleeping patterns while juggling night-weaning, breastfeeding a toddler and preparing for a new little one. You are a Rock Star!!! 🌟 Please let us know if there is any additional help that Bayou City Breastfeeding can provide. We are here for you!!! 😊 Warmly, Bayou City Breastfeeding
My experience with Kristen here at BCB has been amazing! I felt alone in this process at the beginning but Kristen has made my journey much better; an expert and friend. My experience has eliminated any stress I had about breastfeeding/pumping and my journey back to work after my short leave. The education level I have gained from my appointments has made me a successful and happy breastfeeding mom. I cannot say enough good things about BCB! I would highly recommended them for your prenatal and postnatal needs.
Response from the owner:Hi Shelby, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us and for your encouragement to other working mothers. We are thrilled to hear how much Kristen and Bayou City Breastfeeding were able to help you and your family. Being a working mom with a baby that is still breastfeeding can be challenging. We are so happy that Kristen was the perfect IBCLC for you and that she was able to provide you the tools and guidance necessary to stay on your breastfeeding journey after returning to work. Please let us know if there is any additional help that we can provide. We are still here for you!!! 😊 Thank you! Bayou City Breastfeeding
Ariel was outstanding! She was personable, informative, responsive via all communication channels and reassuring which meant a lot to me as a first time mom. Her personality was so refreshing! After many other appointment types throughout pregnancy at different facilities I can honestly say Ariel here at Bayou City BF is the best of the best. She’s not cold in delivering the info and she made I and my husband feel right at home. She was a breath of fresh air and I and my husband agreed that she felt like a God send and trust me he is NOT an easy sell. I felt a giant weight lift off my shoulders after leaving the appointment knowing that we will figure whatever may come out. 10 out of 10, HIGHLY recommend!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind words!
I had such a wonderful experience at BCB! My son struggled to breastfeed after birth, but Tiphany was a lifesaver! She got us off to a great start and even helped us incorporate bottles to decrease the chance he would reject a bottle when I had to return to work.

Now my son is 6 months old, thriving and can switch between bottles and breastfeeding.
Response from the owner:Hi Emily, We greatly appreciate your recommendation!!!! 😊 Thank you so much for taking the time to share your positive experience and kind words with us. We are thrilled to hear how much Tiphany and Bayou City Breastfeeding were able to help you during your breastfeeding journey. Being a new mother can be overwhelming, especially when you are going back to work. We are so glad that Tiphany was able to give you the tips and advice you needed to make that transition seamless. 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
