Karen was super helpful in giving me tips on how to become better at breastfeeding and bottle feeding my newborn. Our appointment was very thorough, I didn’t feel rushed and I had more than enough opportunity to ask all the questions I needed in order to feel comfortable conquering breastfeeding as a first time mom! I would highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so pleased that we were a part of your support team!

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!

I’m so grateful for this team! As a new mama struggling to figure out not only breastfeeding but also how to take care of a baby, they were patient, helpful and knowledgeable. They gave me the confidence I needed. I recommend that all of my new mama friends make an appointment with them!
Response from the owner:Hi Jane,
Thank you so much for your kind words!!! We are sure that it will help other new moms who are on the fence about contacting a lactation consultant. 😊

It took about a week to get an in person visit, but we were able to get a triage video call appointment within 12 hours of my first contact to address immediate concerns. Kathy at the Houston location was thorough, informative, and very helpful. She was respectful of the goals for our family, and made sure to check in and re-assess those goals at our follow up appointments. Would definitely recommend Kathy and Bayou City to anyone looking for support in feeding their baby!
Response from the owner:Hi Anna,
Thank you so much for your glowing recommendation!!! It is our mission to reduce as much stress as possible for our clients and to provide them with all the tools necessary to have a successful breastfeeding journey.

We are so pleased that you benefitted from both our virtual and in office appointment options, and that your IBCLC, Kathy, was so responsive to your changing breastfeeding journey goals .
Please let us know if there is any additional help or guidance that Bayou City Breastfeeding can provide.

We are so glad to have you in the BCB family!

All the best,

Bayou City Breastfeeding, specifically Suzanne Juel, has helped me and my daughter so much on our breastfeeding journey. She has helped my baby latch properly, ensured my baby is getting enough to eat to grow and thrive, and also helped me with establishing a pumping routine to get my baby accustomed to bottles. She also is a wealth of knowledge on so many subjects. As a first-time mom, her expertise has been invaluable. I only wish we would have seen her sooner!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so pleased that we were a part of your support team!

Kathy has been an incredible resource and I feel very lucky to have found her! Very grateful for all her help, tips, and support during this crazy time in my motherhood journey!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words, Melissa. It truly means a lot to hear that your time with Kathy was helpful and supportive. Motherhood can feel overwhelming, and it was an honor that you allowed Kathy to walk alongside you during this season. We are so grateful you trusted Kathy and Bayou City Breastfeeding, and we are cheering you on as you continue your journey.
